    nice models,
    but i have to agree,
    1:18 really shows them off better,
    so much detail.opening parts & turning parts etc....
    not sure the price is worth it tho,
    most expensive ones iv bought have been capris,
    they were £50 each............i have 8 lol.

    James May had it about right when he said that any woman looking for a present for a man should just buy something marked suitable for ages 8 - 12. Still, it's a lot better than having babies.

    I have one or two muscle cars to.

    I also have a few oddballs, such as an old race spec Bugatti, Plymouth Cuda and a few others, in fact I have just dug out some cars still boxed including 2 Aston Martin DB4 (James bond and a std one) plus a Union Jack Mini and the Bugatti. Shame to have to pack them away again though but I have nowhere to put them just yet.
