Another great rally car hitting the shelves, it really seems to be the flavour of the month!

That looks darned familiar- is this not a repop of a much older model?

I have a feeling it might be the Esci kit.

Wonder how it compares to the quite hard to find and when you do, expensive 2nd hand Tamiya version?

Doesn't Tamiya own Italeri now (or at least hve a relationship with them)? I suspect it is the Tamiya kit.

Mike, Tamiya release Italeri kits in the Asian market, were as this kit is the old Esci kit looking at the sprues as the Tamiya kit has an engine which this one appears not to have. Still like to know how it compares though.
