About the Ford Escort WRC Martini Racing #18 G. Cunico / G. Pirollo Rally San Remo 1998 IXO 1:18

TL;DR: IXO's 1:18 diecast Ford Escort WRC reproduces the Martini Racing #18 car of Cunico and Pirollo from the 1998 Rally San Remo. Diecast construction renders the recognizable Martini livery and WRC-era rally-spec bodywork, a solid piece for classic World Rally Championship collectors.

The Martini stripes on a Ford Escort WRC instantly signal a specific late-1990s rallying chapter, and this San Remo entry is a good example of it.

IXO's Rendering of the WRC-Spec Escort

The flared arches and roof-mounted lighting that defined the World Rally Car regulations come through clearly in this diecast, cast into the body rather than fitted as add-on parts prone to loosening over time. The Martini livery's blue and red stripes apply with crisp edges over the white base, a test of alignment precision that shows well under close inspection. Handling the model, the zinc alloy build carries real heft, and the rally-spec suspension height reads correctly compared to a standard road Escort.

San Remo and the World Rally Car Era

Rally San Remo was a fixture on the WRC calendar through the 1990s, mixing tarmac stages that demanded a different setup approach than the gravel events more commonly associated with the championship. The Escort WRC represented Ford's push to stay competitive against Subaru, Toyota, and Mitsubishi during a genuinely fierce period of manufacturer rivalry, and documenting a specific San Remo entry captures one data point from that broader battle.

Building a WRC Classic Display

At 1:18, this Escort's flared stance and rally lighting give it real shelf presence next to other late-1990s World Rally Cars. For collectors tracking Ford's WRC history specifically, or building a broader Martini-liveried motorsport collection across brands, this piece slots naturally into either theme. It's a well-chosen, specific moment from a competitive era rather than a generic rally-car stand-in.
