About the Ford Escort Mk2 RS2000 #9 R. Clark / S. Porter Tour of Britain 1976 MCG 1:18

TL;DR: MCG's 1:18 diecast Ford Escort Mk2 RS2000 reproduces #9, driven by Roger Clark and Stuart Porter at the 1976 Tour of Britain. A home-grown Ford rally weapon at the height of the Escort's dominance in British motorsport.

Roger Clark remains one of British rallying's most fondly remembered names, and pairing him with an Escort Mk2 puts this diecast squarely at the heart of the car's golden era on home soil.

MCG's Diecast Take on the Mk2 Rally Escort

This 1:18 diecast carries the boxy, upright Mk2 Escort silhouette with the wide arch extensions and auxiliary lamps typical of a period rally build, and MCG applies the livery with the kind of clean decal registration that lets sponsor colours read clearly across the bonnet and doors. The metal body gives the model real heft, and panel gaps stay tight around the rally-spec arch flares, an area where lesser tooling can struggle to keep the extended bodywork looking integrated rather than bolted on.

The RS2000 and British Rallying's Golden Era

The Escort Mk2 RS2000 built on the Mk1's rallying reputation with a stronger, more powerful platform, and Ford's factory and privateer teams dominated much of British and European rallying through the mid-1970s with cars like this one. The Tour of Britain, run over closed public roads and forest stages, was a genuine home showcase for that dominance.

A Cornerstone Piece for a British Rally Shelf

For UK-focused collectors, an Escort Mk2 carrying Roger Clark's name is close to essential, a genuine cornerstone piece for any display built around British motorsport's most celebrated rally era.
