Corgi 1/43 Datapost Ford Escort Mk3 RS1600ti Model 1984 BSCC C Class Champion R Longman (VA11000)


In 1980, the first front wheel drive Escort, the Mk3 was born, though its competition potential was not as immediate as earlier marks. In 1982, Ford approached former British Saloon Car Class Champion and motorsport preparation expert Richard Longman with the idea of him running a works-backed team in the 1983 British Saloon Car Championship. Sponsorship from Royal Mail Datapost and Avon Tyres meant that the cars were among the most eye-catching on the grid. Despite both Richard and team mate Alan Curnow gaining three class wins, they lost the Class C Championship. However, after many improvements throughout the Winter, Richard went on to win the 1984 BSCC Class C Championship by twenty-nine points, equating from six of the eleven events contested, also taking the Constructors Prize. If he had not got caught up in someone elses accident at Brands Hatch, he may have bettered second place in the overall Championship.
