Model Car Corner

Postby oliver » Fri Apr 04, 2014 8:08 pm

Being a car club website I would assume you are all petrolheads.
Most of us have model cars, diecast miniatures, toy cars. Call them what you like.
Share your photos here and any stories about them.

Wow !!
I knew you had a big and varied collection of models Oliver but they are fantastic.
Personal favourite in those photos is the 6 series.
I love the WRC Countryman and the 'road' Countryman too.

The BMW models are very cool - Love the E30 M3

I picked up an Exoto model of a Porsche 935 about 12 years back, and it's probably the nicest model I own

Yeah all Lego Technic sets. I have a bulldozer too, but took it apart ages ago to try and make other things and found out I have lost a few major parts to be able to put it back together :S

Which would be this one:

Thanks Fergal. They make most of the Art Cars in miniature. Difficult to get now though.

I Love the M3 up on the jack and the wing guard for when the mechanic is leaning into the engine bay.
