Those are some very nice collection....
Wait until Gis gets here and sees the F40, he will go nuts.

By the way the GT40 and the SLR300 are my favorite in your collection.. I really want to get them .. I have the GT40 but the new one.. and I got an SLR300 but it's smaller than 1:18 scale.. by the way which brand is the GT40 ?

[TT]

Great collection dude! All very nice!!

[ngudan]

Good stuff Mers. I cant really tell from the images, but are those kits or die-cast models???

[TT]

Well, the 1/43 are die-cast, as for the 1/18 seems all die-cast judging by the manufacturers (minichamps, autoart...)

[DanielW]

what a great collection you got mers :shock: 8)

[Mers]

Evo, the 300SLR is 1:43...
I think there is one which is 1:18, but i don't know...
and the Gt40 is by Jouef...also 1:43

They are all die cast models...
i'd put up pictures of my kits, but they got completely busted up when i moved houses

Thanks for the good word!!

[Mers]

I was thinking of buying 2 more Auto Art 1:18 cars to broaden my collection....
I'd like a classic and a modern car...
I'm looking for suggestions, so naturally, i'd come here to ask
What do u guys think?
I was thinking of getting a gallardo cos I love it...and maybe an old alfa...but please help me choose..thanx

[TT]

Uhm.. if I would have to buy two 1:18 Autoart today, a modern and a classic car, w/o a shade of a doubt I will take the Miura SV and the Maybach 62, both from the new collection, not sure the name! I actually reserved and ordered a Miura time ago, but sadly out of stock for Switzerland so far

[Mers]

Yes...the miura is a very interesting choice....i've just seen it in the auto art site..
the maybach is nice, but i don't like the real car, so i don't see the point in having a model of it just yet....
thanx for the suggestions!!

[gbg]
