^^^ Yup, can get you more pics of the Corgi Escort and Pug 205 once I'm home - and will set those Matchbox aside for you!

Cheers!

You bad man.

 

 

Majorettes as a complete mystery box if no-one else wants them, can't stretch to Corgis just now. BACS ok?

I bought the Imp and R16 from a guy at a swapmeet about 25 years ago, but I now reckon they're repaints... the Imp has a shagged suspension point too, and the baseplate's come away.

The Cortina is at least honest in its buggeredness!

What sort of Coastguard would use a Matra Rancho?

Could you add the Fire R18 to the R30 from last week please?

 

Also is that an Alpine next to it? If so that as well.

 

What's the White taxi next along? Fiat 2300?

Ooh... it's about 1/35-ish? It's the Corgi equivalent on Matchbox Superkings size. Corgi used the same casting on their Spender tv tie-in Sierra Cossie.

Any more 1/43?

There are indeed- I'll be posting them up later on!

Thanks, I will pass on that case. I really like it but will be sensible for once. Still want the yellow Capri though!

 

(1:43 and 1:76 or 72 for model railway stuff is my area)

Sure thing - £2 on the Solido R18, £5 on the Talbot 180 (Alpine), made by Spanish manufacturer Pilen.

Though, of course, multipurchase discount is to be applied... so far the R18's yours for free with the other two.

 

White car alongside is a Corgi Classics Mk1 Cortina police car!

 

Also have a boxed Solido Simca 1308 taxi, if you're interested... pics later!

No bother - Capri and Saab are set aside for you!

 

I'm focusing on the same scales these days - hence the sale! Still have a lot of 1/72 stuff by Hongwell Cararama to come, by the way. A LOT.

Hey, some Majorette interest via pm has seen a couple cherry-picked (one of the Simca 1100s, R4 van) - though overall box price will be reduced to reflect that!

 

If the box of Corgis tickles your fancy, I'll gladly set it aside for you until finances are favourable- have happily done that for shiters in the past.

no problem....If the base plate is loose then it makes it easier to fix the Glidamatic!  

Cortina is a parts donor for mine!

NB - currently painting more bloody doors here, so will be a few hours before I can boot up the laptop and upload pics/amend existing pics to reflect those spoken for. Thanks for everyone's patience!

Whats the blue sunroof beetle, please, Tim?  (Just behind that Alpine/Simca 1308)

No rush!

On the upside, the doors are starting to look alright. Considering this was just a hole in the wall on Thursday.

It's a rather battered 1990s Matchbox Dinky swiped from a jumble sale! Had a hard paper round, that one... £1 takes it as a resto project.

Ah, thanks, Tim - I will pass on that one if I may - I know what it is now.   The paint loss made it look more attractive!  

 

Moar goodies awaited with baited breath....

Interest/offers?

 

Some of the boxed ones have been opened. Many have not, though.

Is that a non-sunroof Redline Beetle in front of the red dragster at the top of the 1st picture?,worth a few quid if it is.Also,is that another Redline next to the Fire Engine?

Incoming... just making a coffee and booting up the laptop.

Obviously, taking pics of tiny cars in your back garden at 10.30 at night produces some really high-quality pics, so get ready to be amazed!

Just so that we all are on the same page here, that light blue Norev plastic R16 is MINE!

Sadly, there are no plastic Norevs in my pitiful collection... that R16's a French Dinky, and a suspected repaint too, against which M.Rocker has expressed interest earlier today.

 

Rest assured had I any plastic Norev, you would have been the first to know!

Right, Bluetooth is refusing to cooperate and the laptop's USB ports are long since borked, so going to have to try getting all this up using the phone... stand by!

Posted

Right, the rest of the 1/43 stuff, then...

***ROFFLED!*** Big Corgi Classics Scammell Highwayman artic, in Siddle C. Cook livery. Not taken out of the box (yet) as it's a bugger to get back in again. Will unbox if any interest!

It's not in bad nick, as I recall, but I'm not sure how dainty my 14 year old self was at gluing the doormirrors on.

I swapped this for a bag of mint boxed early 80s Corgis that could probably now pay my mortgage off. Which is why it must go.

£20 posted?

2x tinplate Vee-Dubs now - a Beetle, and a Bay Kombi in fire livery.

Think these are fairly recent Czech models. 'CKO' and 'Replica' are stamped into the baseplate, while 'Kovap' is on the box.

There's also a garage for them, with some brilliant graphics.

***ALLOCATED!!*** Vitesse Land Rover S2, in not brilliant nick.

Paint chipped on the roof, back axle seems to have collapsed. Box slightly torn. Still, could be an interesting project?

Not quite 1/43, a Mazda RX7 in one of those annoying inbetweeny scales Matchbox taunted us with now and again.

post-17915-0-54626500-1527634185_thumb.jpg

SOLD!!!

Not perfect (thanks to the open-fronted box) but nice all the same.

£5 posted.
