Ford Escort RS Turbo Princess Diana Private Car Black MCG 1:18
Ford Escort RS Turbo Princess Diana Private Car Black MCG 1:18
1/6
MCG's 1:18 diecast Ford Escort RS Turbo in Black recreates the personal car linked to Princess Diana, presented without rally graphics as a road-going hot hatch. This is a new, boxed model with a sealed one-piece body, keeping the clean black bodywork and hatch silhouette free of seams. A talking-point piece for a special-models shelf.
About the Ford Escort RS Turbo Princess Diana Private Car Black MCG 1:18
TL;DR: MCG's 1:18 diecast Ford Escort RS Turbo in Black recreates the private, road-going car associated with Princess Diana, on a sealed one-piece diecast body. New model, new box. Free of rally graphics, it presents the Escort RS Turbo purely as a period hot hatch.
Away from the rally stage, the Escort RS Turbo also had a life as a genuinely quick road car, and its association with a private, high-profile owner gives this particular version a story that has nothing to do with competition.
A Clean-Bodied Escort RS Turbo in Diecast
This model is built as a sealed, one-piece diecast shell, and without rally decals or sponsor graphics to worry about, the focus falls squarely on the Escort's honest hot-hatch proportions. The black paint sits deep and even across the flat bonnet and hatchback tailgate, with the moulded shutlines around the doors and rear hatch running tight and consistent, a sign of a well-tooled sealed casting rather than an assembled body. Zinc alloy construction gives the compact hatchback real heft in the hand, denser than its modest footprint suggests. With no opening panels, there's no cabin to inspect through an open door, so the model is judged entirely on stance, paint depth and the crispness of its exterior detailing, and this casting holds up well under close inspection precisely because there's nothing hidden to fall short.
A Provenance Piece for a Special-Models Shelf
Cars with a documented private owner occupy their own corner of collecting, distinct from both works rally cars and standard road specifications, and this Escort fits that niche neatly. Displayed apart from the rally liveries in the same range, it makes its own case as a period road car with a genuinely unusual history behind it.
