Bennyg Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 I found some interesting looking current rally car models. They appear to be very well detailed apart from no engine. Come with photo etch and seat belt material. http://www.belkits.be/ Cheers Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roncla Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 I've yet to purchase one of their kits but they always get positive reviews. The coming WRC Polo kit looks very tempting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bennyg Posted December 22, 2014 Author Share Posted December 22, 2014 I'm liking the skoda and vw. Looking at getting the skoda as we've just ordered a skoda octavia rs wagon for the family car. Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinfan5 Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 (edited) Speaking of the Polo, here is a test shot of it I am excited for it A small teaser from our Belkits VW Polo WRC. this is the test shot built, without painting. After this build, we have found some changes to be made: - wheels need improvement- more detail needed for air intake on hood - and other small updates A new test shot will be produced now and will be sent to VW for approval. After approval, production can start. Edited December 22, 2014 by martinfan5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bugatti Fan Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 I saw a picture of Belkits box art for a Mark 1 Escort Rally Car from the 60's somewhere. Nice to see them dipping their toes in the water with a classic rally car instead of all the new stuff. If it sells well maybe we will see other classic race/rally cars as well like a Mark One Lotus Cortina or a Metro 6R4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atmobil Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Yes, mk1 Escort kit is long overdue, I think it will sell really well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Whalen Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 I've heard good reports about the Belkits rally cars. There are aftermarket companies that do decals for them as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lysleder Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Thats great! I like Polos. I've yet to buy my first Belkits kit. I have been trudging circles trying to find a justification to spend the required amount for one of their Fiestas, the Polo is likely to come in the same category.When the Escort is released, that is when it will get really challenging!

Mr Stock Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 There is a part of me thats dissapointed that the Escort Mk1 thats due is a curbside, part of that cars magic was the twin cam BDA engine and it would have been great to build a full replica....that said Ill be getting one anyway. Looks to be a very good kit.Im very surprised Revell AG hasnt done a Mk1 Escort road car as a kit yet, the different versions they could model would be fantastic.

Mr Stock Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 (edited) Good point James, it won't stop me buying the Escort kit when it's released, I was just daydreaming about a rally repair workshop diorama with the Escort engine in bits ...... I'll wake up now lol. Edited August 18, 2015 by Mr Stock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
