Ford Fiesta Mk1 XR2 Diamond White 1981 1:18 Scale Resin Car – OttOmobile
Product Description
Celebrate one of the defining sporting Fords of the early 1980s with this Ford Fiesta Mk1 XR2 Diamond White 1981 1:18 Scale Resin Model Car by OttOmobile. Produced as OttOmobile reference OT1405, this limited-edition model recreates the original Mk1 Fiesta XR2 in its classic Diamond White finish and is restricted to just 999 examples. With its unmistakable sporting appearance and strong association with Ford's early hot-hatch era, the first-generation XR2 remains a particularly collectable subject for Ford and classic performance car enthusiasts.
Introduced in 1981, the Ford Fiesta XR2 was the first dedicated sporting model in the Fiesta range. Developed by Ford's Special Vehicle Engineering department, the original car combined a 1,598cc Kent overhead-valve engine with a four-speed manual gearbox and distinctive performance-focused styling. Circular headlamps and driving lamps, extended wheelarches, prominent front and rear spoilers, XR2 graphics and distinctive 13-inch alloy wheels transformed the compact Fiesta into one of the most recognisable sporting hatchbacks of its generation.
OttOmobile has reproduced that distinctive appearance in 1:18 scale, with particular attention paid to the Mk1 XR2's compact proportions, squared-off body shape and characteristic sporting details. The Diamond White paintwork provides a strong contrast with the black exterior trim, wheelarch extensions and spoilers, while the detailed wheels, lamps, badging and interior help capture the unmistakable appearance of the 1981 car.

About the Ford Fiesta Mk1 XR2
Launched in 1981, the Ford Fiesta Mk1 XR2 gave Ford's compact hatchback a distinctly sporting character. Its 1.6-litre Kent engine produced approximately 84 bhp and was paired with a four-speed manual gearbox, while uprated suspension, ventilated front disc brakes and wider alloy wheels complemented the additional performance. Visually, its round lamps, black wheelarch extensions, spoilers, XR2 graphics and distinctive alloy wheels separated it immediately from the standard Fiesta range.
The Mk1 XR2 was produced for only a relatively short period before the first-generation Fiesta was replaced, helping make it one of the most recognisable early members of Ford's XR performance family. Today its combination of compact proportions, distinctive early-1980s styling and Fast Ford heritage gives the original XR2 lasting appeal among classic Ford enthusiasts.
Why This Model Stands Out
The OttOmobile Ford Fiesta XR2 OT1405 brings together several features likely to appeal particularly strongly to collectors: an iconic British-market performance car, the desirable first-generation XR2 specification, a period Diamond White finish and a production run limited to only 999 examples. At 1:18 scale, the contrasting black trim, XR2 graphics, sporting wheels and characteristic front-end treatment can all be appreciated clearly, giving the model considerable presence in a Ford, hot hatch or 1980s performance car collection.
Collector's Note
OT1405 is a limited OttOmobile release of just 999 examples and is available through the manufacturer's retailer network rather than as a regular direct-sale OttOmobile model. Its combination of the original Mk1 Fiesta XR2, Diamond White paintwork and large 1:18 scale makes it a particularly interesting release for collectors of classic Fords, XR models and early hot hatchbacks.

- Ford Fiesta and Ford XR collectors
