The Corgi Ford Transit MK6 came along as a tentative return to the small scale pocket money market after losing their old Juniors legacy casting to Mattel. It was a casting which obviously lent itself very well to various different liveries and colour schemes both stock and for promotional purchases and indeed it can be found in masses of different editions. The funny thing is I don't recall it being either widely available through normal retailers or it being particularly cheap at the time and probably explains why I have so few in my collection.
Its a fairly plain affair for a licensed casting with not a great amount of detailing though its metal body and long dimension gives it a very robust and weighty feel. Cheap looking wheels reminds you this was never designed to be an adult collectible though its plastic clear lense lights are a nice touch.
This very attractive London Buses version was recently found in a charity shop and kindly sent my way.
Quite an original Escort, now approaching it's 20th birthday. Shame about that missing piece of trim on the driver's door.

Hung out with Adam and Vic (you'll see his STI later) for a bit this evening. There is just something about a car sitting on its nuts that makes it look so sexy. Adam's MK6 is one of kind. Masterminded and built by the boys over at Phantom Autowerke in Elmsford, NY, every detail of this car has been carefully placed to make it look like it came from the factory like this. I haven't seen a nicer MK6 yet.
Anyways, Canon 7D and 135L @ F/2.0 probably. ISO was most likely jacked up as well.
