It is showing as a discontinued kit when I search for it so you have better get one of those soon cause when they are gone they are gone for good! Guess that is why the price is so high...

Does it have to be Belkits? There are some other RS1600 kits out there.

Italeri (EX Esci) offers a MK 11...re-pop with cartograph decals.....hopefully it has better plastic this time!...I like the MK 1 body style better though !...but I don't know of another kit other than Belkits that offers a MK 1.

I have this kit in my stash: Is this anything like what you are looking for?

Belkits are very good.
Take your point about only being kerbside (Escort engines weren't that exciting anyway).
The level of detail they have elsewhere is very good indeed and they go together nicely.
Expensive but often are unique and interesting subjects.

For the price, I'll settle for an MK I.
