hennabm Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Now I don't suppose you can help me and a mate of mine..........I'm looking for a large scale E30 that is NOT an M3. I do have a Jap kit that I bought in 88 that takes two AA batteries in the rear and has a number plate like M BW 323 - which is nice as I have a 323. But I would like a proper looking E30 in a larger scale. Did anyone ever make one?For my mate, he is looking for a larger scale Ren 14 Mk2. Having read through this thread tonight I have found that IXO did/do one but is it a Mk2 and if so where can he get one?TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hennabm Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Even when at the musuem in Munich last month they didn't know of one or indeed have ANY E30 in the shop or even on display. Let's face it they didn't make a lot of the real thing did they!Seems like I may have to keep searching and hoping... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Split_Pin Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 Hey is your R-14 owning friend from Edinburgh too? I notice the Ayrshire registration? I really like that - I'll keep my eyes peeled for it around!Corgi did do a 1/36 scale E30 in the 80s. Its not an M3, but had a front spoiler and an opening sunroof. The bonnet even opened in the same strange way that BMW ones did back then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hennabm Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 He is from the county of it's registration. It doesn't get out much though.I do have a Corgi version of the E30, as you say with opening sunroof and bonnet. Mine is in red to match my E30 and still in its box.

PS where did you pull the pic from as the only place I know it has been posted is on a French R14 forum?I had communications with Kenneth a few months ago. It started when something I had been watching on eBay, an R14 part, had been bought by him, so I sent him a message out of interest enquiring whether he was a fellow R14 owner (there aren't many of us about!). Turns out he was, we exchanged some e-mails, pictures of our cars etc. I told him about this site too, has he any plans to sign up himself? You must be the friend he mentioned who had been posting up pictures of his car on forums for him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I would like a proper looking E30 in a larger scale. Did anyone ever make one?No, wish they did as they would sell very well There are plenty of 1/43 E30 variants but nothing at all in 1/18 which is odd really.For my mate, he is looking for a larger scale Ren 14 Mk2. Having read through this thread tonight I have found that IXO did/do one but is it a Mk2 and if so where can he get one?TIAAs linked by Regie above, we only have 1/43 R14s in stock. There was a 1/24 scale by (I think) Burago many many years ago but that will be all but impossible to find now I guess. None produced in 1/18, not many R14 models produced generally really.
