I got this Ford Escort WRC from a friend without its base, so I am not sure of the year if its 96 or 97 that Carlos Sainz drove this together with Luis Moya.
If it is the 96 version then Sainz and Moya only placed 3rd overall in the Acropolis Rally of Greece, but if it is the 97 version, then they got 1st place!

this model is by IXO in 1:43 version.

ReplyDeleteI just opened two links among the sites a visitor to my own blog follows, and one of them directed me here. To my utter surprise it's managed by a certain JDMike. JDMike? Could it be the JDMike I know? Well, whatever they say, internet is a very small place...
ReplyDeleteYour Escort is a '97 JD. Sainz' car was given #4 in '96 Acropolis. This Ixo model was released by Altaya exclusively for the Spanish market, among a series of cars driven by Sainz. I had two myself but sold one. ;)
It's a very nice blog you have here. I think I'll visit it frequently! :)
How could be you so lucky JDMike? :-O
