Racing 43 - New 1:43rd limited edition metal kits

RGS161

Audi Quattro 'BP' 1000 Lakes 1981 - Mouton

£31.30

RGS162

Audi Quattro 'BP' 1000 Pistes 1981 - Mouton

£31.30

RGS164

Lancia Delta Integrale HF5 'Martini' test car 1991

£31.30

We have seen these basic sets of parts before and know that they will build well and look superb. The Quattros represent the black, yellow and green machine driven by Mouton throughout the 1981 season. The yellow panels on the decal sheet look a little too 'golden' when compared with photos of the 1,000 Lakes car but otherwise all looks good. In Finland Mouton finished 13th overall and won the Ladies prize but we can't find any results for the 1,000 Pistes event. The Integrale is the fairly plain white Martini liveried car that was used by the factory test team in France. There are no race numbers or drivers names on the car.

Ford Escort light pod

£4.35

These kits all share the same superbly cast, accurate looking body and have different wheels, tyres, decals and ancillary parts for the various events. The Martini sponsored Monte winner of Auriol also includes decals for Kankkunen, and the other Martini sponsored cars then use this basic sheet with a supplementary sheet for specific events.
The Safari kit makes the 2nd placed car of Kankkunen but neglects the other two team cars from the event while the San Remo kit offers either winner Aghini or 2nd placed Kankkunen but not Auriol. Carlos Sainz drove the Repsol sponsored car on selected events during the 1993 season with a best finish of 2nd place in Portugal. The wheel braces add a little touch of realism to any 1:24th rally car model while the light pod will fit any number of Escort Cosworth/ WRC models especially those from the Monte.

Ferrari 250 GTO Tourist Trophy 1963 #16 decal - 1:24

£4.00

Both of these sheets are reasonably well printed. The crew decals include enough for 12 figures and some of the pit lane equipment such as the Stop/1st gear lollipop. There are no instructions with the GTO sheet other than 'Car colour : bright green with red or silver wheels' printed on the decal sheet itself.

All of the decal sheets are clearly printed with well drawn placement diagrams but offer little else by way of instructions. The Alpine A110 trans-kits include very well cast resin parts for front spoilers and - in the case of 24122 and 24123 - wheel-arch extensions. All the A110 parts are for Tamiya but we're not sure what the 206 or R8 parts are to fit. The manufacturer presumably knows what these items are intended for use with and what colour the vehicles are and it would be nice if they shared this information with their customers! The service tents consist of laser printed card with metal poles. It is fairly obvious how the tent canopy is intended to fold and written instructions are given - in French - for pole lengths, etc.
