Bought this little beauty for 4 quid to add to my Collection.

 

[Parisien]

Very nice Adam...............your collection is coming along nicely...

First Alfa i have in my collection.

Thats a very nice model there Adam....I prefer the 1.43 to the 1.18 as the detail is amazing for something so small.

 

[GransportFan1]

Yeah same but decent 1:43 cars like minichamps can set you back about 35 quid each, which isn't cheap for something so small.

 

[Andyk]

Good things come in small pakages mate...ask the wife...Oh and before Frank comments I am small in height.

Adam BMW I know but the details on these are amazing..Its a dealer only collection piece of 3000...

 

[GransportFan1]

That is mint, how much it set you back, about 90 quid?

 

[Andyk]

They were about £80 but got it off ebay for £25...couldn't believe it, plus it was from a BMW dealer on there so new.

That would add to your collection....very nice......Minichamps are really good. Also Sparks make some cracking models. I have some racing TVR's and the detail is amazing also.

bob some pics on of them, TVR models are not that popular so are nice to see, yeah Spark are brilliant, they are made from resin hence why they are more expensive than Minichamps.

Came across this whilst trawling through Ebay today,
bit pricey, but it is from 1957...wish they had also put a picture of the car though, rather than just the box!

That is a good price as for 1, it is rare, 2, it is a good scale, 1:18 and 3, the quality will be excellent.

if you like model cars, that is one to have in the collection.
