morris_ital_lover Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 It's a Diorama. Can anyone recreate this in 1/24? Think the kits are out there..... I'm rather tempted to have a go with slightly different automotive matter in 1/32 thanks to this. (If I do, pictures will obviously be shared here).

cort16 Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Given it's age, spec and non-auto-non-diesel grenading engine this looks pretty good for a grand.

cort16 Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 No, the logistics of going to see it put me off. I didn't fancy a train journey to go and see it and not fancy it or a drive up to agree to buy it the having to come back and get the train. Did I mention I'm lazy?

I like one of the comments on Youtube: haha, they took the front end of the mondeo and attached it to the fiesta, then they wanna take the back end of the mondeo and attach that to the fiesta too. why not just start with a mondeo in the first place? xD Still better than the Golf they did for Johnny Vegas though, however I would rather have syphilis than any of their cars.

Look at the crap he pushes. It looks like the MOT is included if you read the bumph, but he's seriously deluded if he thinks it's worth anywhere near that amount. That garage used to be a BL dealer until Rover went bang, and after that I think they started trying to sell specialist stuff, though I seem to recall they weren't very successful at that either.
