    Re: Model Cars

    So Andrew's car is based on a period colour scheme (yellow/light blue/dark blue). I didn't know that.

    Phil,
    I know most of your models are 1:43, but do you have any 1:24 scale?

    Re: Model Cars

    Hi CJ
    Yes the "Cavalca" car that Andrew has is an original colour scheme just less the stickers... the models in my collection are WRC and ERC colour schemes

    Yes I do have 1:24 and 1:18..... the 1:18 are pre made in a box.... the 1:24 are hand made and are by "Racing" of Italy and I have about 6 of these but they are not as popular as the 1:43

    I feel that the best 1:43 models are by Arena Modelli and are a resin based kit, the level of detail is really good........... whereas Racing are a metal based kit and some things are not quite right, like wheel offsets etc.... and there are some really bad models out there too !
