C4323 Ford Escort MK2

While having a break from decorating and checking reviews on YouTube I came across a well-informed review by SlotR of this Scalextric Car. He compares the Scalextric Car with photo's of the original car. It's worth looking at.

Bearing in mind the attention to detail claims by Hornby on the TV series and how good other cars are, I would be interested in seeing a response about this one.

Yeah pretty bad, number on the top of the car is in the wrong place, wrong wheels, no sun visor,wrong livery on the bonnet etc.

 

 

I am not sure why this wasn't accurate because in the original photos it was (cost savings?). It certainly doesn't give you certainty for placing pre orders, there are other examples on other cars too and some poor quality control generally.

 

 

I am sure they will make improvements but I am not placing a pre order until I have seen independent reviews on the new range.

 

 

I think the new Puma rally car looks good and the Cosworth. I am also looking at getting a BTCC. I hope the new range lives up to expectation as it is probably the best range in a while.

Nothing from Scalextric then?

Has anyone actually contacted them directly?

The info is at the bottom of this page...

I am not a Hornby employee just a volunteer so real customers contacting them might help...
