Can say what it's like as it is a gift but I will update this post after Christmas, there was no glue with it and some of the pieces were easily broken,it was a gift for an adult

Good for the money not as detailed as I’d like
Pretty simple to put together nice little kit wheels seem to stick in the arches a bit to much on the front and there isn’t a lot of detail in the engine bay but apart from that not bad for the price and all these things that can be addressed with someone more skilled than myself

Modelmaking Skills Needed.
This is the old Esci tool from about 1980 with new decals, and it shows in some places.The worst piece is certainly the body shell, which has significant flash and very pronounced seam lines to clean up. These are worst along the wheel flare edges and the edges of the front and rear wings (US fenders) and on the rear light cutouts. Anyone who's seen a real Escort mk2 will notice this. The rear spoiler is sunk slightly in the middle but I can live with that because the real one was made of rubber and did sink slightly in the middle. The front spoiler is a separate part, but the joint line is in the correct place.The engine bay is adequate. You might want to add high tension ignition leads and/or heater hoses but in this scale that's all that's needed and not supplied.The interior will be acceptable as long as you can live with decal seat belts, but this is half the price of Belkits Escort mk1 rally cars so you can buy aftermarket harness sets and still pay less for a full detail model than for a kerbside one.The big issue is with the instructions and/or suspension which give no guidance on whether you should remove the lowering blocks (needed for the Zakspeed circuit racing car incarnation of the kit) from the rear springs, or shorten the rear dampers moulded into the floorpan and front strut tops. There are cut lines moulded into the strut tops and rear springs to help with this. As things stand, if you follow the instructions the rear suspension won't fit together and the finished model would have a tail down sit if it did.From the box art, and given that the Monte Carlo rally is on tarmac (OK and sometimes snow and/or ice) I think I'll shorten the rear dampers and front struts on mine.
