Ford Sierra Cosworth 1st Ypres/Cevennes 1991 Snijers/Beguin 1:24 by Renaissance
Ford Sierra Cosworth Ypres/Cevennes 1991 1:24 kit
The two options offered in this kit are of the same car which appeared in the hands of different drivers, Patrick Snijers winning the Ypres rally in the ERC and Bernard Beguin taking the Criterium des Cevennes on his way to the French title. There are subtle differences between the two liveries due to the individual drivers’ personal backing, which are well observed. Whichever driver you choose, a two-tone paint finish will be needed. We’ve seen the basic resin kit parts a few times before and the general proportions are pretty good, but a bit of work will be needed to remove excess material and get it all to fit. The model is kerbside but there is plenty of chassis and underside detailing and a well-appointed cabin. The instructions are a bit hit and miss with some details very well demonstrated and others left to the imagination. There are a few options such as whether or not to use light pods or brake cooling fans and the latter certainly featured on the Snijers car for some stages of the event.

About Renaissance
Excellent kits and conversion sets (for plastic) using resin bodies, white metal parts, lots of very fine photo-etching and good decals. Some castings need cleaning. Excellent instructions. Classic subjects (REN43 refs) are relatively simple builds, while the Integral series (RENI) of more modern subjects are a little more complex. Made in France
