155V6 Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 I know there was a post before about,models,but it was mostly about expensive ones.If you want some models of 70s-90s cars & don't want to pay a lot,get to a Car Boot sale & look for some Majorettes.The four in the pic cost about a pound in total Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Split_Pin Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 I had a couple of those when i was younger. Majorette and Norev did some good models of shite in the 70's and 80's. Guisval were a good Spanish manufacturer of miniature shite too.Check out the 'shite in minature' thread. Recently (and Messrs Ritmo will be able to add to this) I have found the best way to purchase excellent quality models for under a fiver is to check e-bay. There are chinese sellers on there who (allegedly) pocket models from the production line then flog them on e-bay for (usually) about 5-7 quid, and only a few quid more for postage all the way from China.Recently I have purchased a Tagora, Renner 14 and Fiat 132 in this manner. Not strictly 'right' but hey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
55bloke Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 Trouble with those Majorette models is that they're only approximate at best!! No where near as good as Matchbox! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milford Cubicle Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 Is the blue one supposed to be a Renault 25? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
