Minichamps' 1:18 diecast Ford Capri Mk1 RS2600 arrives in blue, reproducing the road-going homologation coupe that underpinned Ford's early 1970s touring car programme.
About the Ford Capri Mk1 RS2600 Blue Minichamps 1:18
TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:18 diecast reproduces the Ford Capri Mk1 RS2600 in blue, the road-going homologation coupe built to qualify Ford's touring car racer for competition. Zinc alloy construction and opening panels suit collectors building a Capri or European Ford lineage display.
Before the Capri RS2600 became a fixture on European touring car grids, Ford had to build and sell a road version to satisfy homologation rules, and this blue diecast represents that street-legal starting point rather than a race car.
Reproducing the Mk1 Capri's Homologation Coupe
The RS2600's long bonnet and fastback roofline give it a distinctive stance among 1970s coupes, and Minichamps' casting follows those proportions closely enough that the car reads correctly even without racing livery to draw the eye. The blue finish needs even coverage across the bonnet and wings, since flat colours like this show up any inconsistency in paint depth more readily than a busy racing scheme would. Opening doors and bonnet are typical for Minichamps' 1:18 Capri range, giving a look at the cabin and the engine bay beneath. Being diecast rather than resin, the model carries real heft, appropriate for a car whose road version needed genuine mechanical substance to justify racing homologation.
A Road-Going Companion to the Capri Racers
At roughly 20cm, this Capri sits comfortably in standard 1:18 shelf spacing among other 1970s coupes. Its natural place is alongside the RS2600 race liveries from Spa and the Nürburgring, since displaying the road car beside its racing siblings tells the full homologation story that a single race car alone cannot. This is a straightforward, honestly finished street model rather than a limited-edition showpiece, which makes it a sensible entry point for a Capri collection or a broader early-1970s Ford theme. Kept out of strong sunlight, the blue paint holds its tone well over years of display.
