Born from a partnership between Ford and Lotus in 1963, this lightweight saloon revolutionised rally competition, combining the Cortina's practical chassis with Lotus's engineering prowess. The MK I dominated rally circuits throughout the mid-1960s, earning legendary status through countless victories and the raw talent of drivers like Soderstrom and Palm who piloted these machines to glory. This 1:18th scale model captures that golden era with meticulous attention to detail. Hand-crafted engineering brings the RAC Rally specification to life—from the authentic livery and period-correct racing number 11 to the finely rendered interior and suspension components. Every panel line, chrome trim, and decal reflects the craftsmanship that defined these competition machines. The left-hand drive configuration honours the international rally heritage, whilst the precision die-cast construction ensures durability and display-quality finish that collectors demand. A tribute to an unforgettable moment in motorsport when innovation and determination rewrote the rulebook.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Grid and Garage Diecast","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54007319494994,"sku":"MCG 18435","price":76.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1084\/8233\/0962\/files\/118scaleFordLotusCortinaMK1_11RACRallyBSoderstromGPalmLHD.png?v=1784123885","url":"https:\/\/www.gridandgaragediecast.com\/products\/ford-lotus-cortina-mk-i-number-11-rac-rally-1-18th-scale","provider":"Grid and Garage Diecast","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
