One of these is winging it's way to my pad as I type.

 

 

Reg Grundy roolz, ya bas!

But it's a suzuki jeep in the show.

 

I have the jet ranger as a junior still in it's packet. And the remains of the bigger one somewhere.

Heres my fairly dreadful efforts with the Airfix Betta Builda. I've had my fun with it, if anyone wants the lot it's £10 posted!

Searching for an AutoArt Mazda RX8 in red. There is a slot car on ebay but not quite what I am looking for.

[andy18s]

What scale?

Chuffed to bits with it. It's the first 1/43 car I've had from Oxford (barring a couple of Cararama Fords and a few ice cream vans) and am well impressed. Paint is flawless and loads of detail. Love the proper Viva type curved mudflaps, miniature simulated screws on the bases of the mirrors, tiny griffin logos on the wheel centres, nicely done wipers and impressive to see the dash clocks and vents etc picked out. Badging is superb as well. Could easily pass for something twice the price IMO.

Just a shame they don't do more 'ordinary' cars like the Firenza...

Excellent. Glad you like! There may well be more of its ilk on the way...

Tipo is cracking, PM sent.

I love the wheels on those Bbbbburago models.

Something for the Vauxhall botherers, Oxford Diecast's Vectra in 1/76. I added the black on the wheels, a simple change but one that transformed its appearance.

That's ace, got that in 1/43. Love the Skoda as well.

Loving the Vauxhall minibus, looks like a Tawe conversions Master I used to drive

That's pretty much what it is. It was my first venture into kit production, converted from an ambulance kit and cast in resin. I had 30 of them made a couple of years ago and sold them all pretty quickly.

[junkyarddog]

Fantastic,does it run?

[Christine]

I would think so, lots of compression .

 

He's got a pre war MightyMidget petrol and an American un named  petrol , they were his fathers , reconditioned in 1988 but unused since,,, 100 quid each..? 

[mercrocker]

These sound fantastic, like a laryngitic bee on amphetamines playing about with the PA in the school assembly hall.  Look forward to the You Tube...

I went to a huge Tesco today,they had loads of the new Majorette stuff mentioned earlier in this thread.The single cars were £2.00 each,so I only bought the Citroen Cactus which I'd been looking for.There were also some 3-packs of rally cars,which were £6.00,& a pack of 15 cars for £15.00 but nothing in there I really wanted.

They're still having problems scanning them at the till,but the assistant found something else for the same price & scanned that instead.

[Felly Magic]

Ive been giving an old bburago Fiat Teapot a lick of paint, not perfect, but better than it was, even added a steering wheel to it

I could so not resist this today.

 

[Vantman]

Coincedence! I have just sold an identical Revell boxed Volvo PV for £25.00.

[Pillock]

Erm..... I can definitely see how someone thought that was the correct proportions for the wheels.

 

[Spottedlaurel]

I can imagine the seller had difficulty pricing this lot up, and he’s dropped it by £250 on what he was asking earlier in the year but it's still £2250:

My maths suggests that’s £33.58 each. A lot have been reissued over the years and are available at rather less than that, which would be fine if they’re just going to get built. There's an ability to submit an offer, but I doubt he'd accept £100....

[Felly Magic]

Nice collection, but I think they are dreaming with that price

[Bren]

Purchased today for £4 each -

 

 

Mercury sable wagon - I like the opening hatch and glass headlights.

 

 

 

 

Nissan prarie - not fussed on the colours, hearing aid beige would have been better but hey ho.
