Meh 2 years work i reckon 😉 👍

The speed I go that is entirely accurate.(My 12 that is.)😀 But it won't stop me going for a model shop today and I am looking very much forward to it..

Strewth! I thought that my stash was large. Even if you included all my aircraft and armour models, it wouldn't come to that much. And my wife is telling me I have too many to make anyway!

 

 

Cheers,

Alan.

@Six97s, nice collection.

 

I want wallpapers that look like stacks of model kit boxes. Would look good in my hobby room.

Hi All,

Not all at the same time, but over the last few weeks...

y4mFL4ud5O13r_hGQYVoQQY7PuCHxMKP-pxIjqIa

I love this car. I recently read a drive test in Autocar, and they loved it. Said it was a bit like a grown up MX-5.

It was the perfect mix of handling with adequate power to really enjoy yourself...

Another one that fulfils that brief. Very capable handling with enough power to really enjoy the experience...

I have been waiting for one of these to turn up for a while now. Finally, one appeared in the Kingkit web-store for a reasonable price. Have you seen the prices some people are asking on eBay? Ridiculous.

I now have three Fiat 500s to build, two original ones and the Fujimi new Abarth 500. Looking forward to this little project.

 

Cheers,

Alan.

Great selection, the only one I don't have is the GT86.

The little Tamiya Abarth is a real nice kit. I guess you'll enjoy the build

Agreed, the Tamiya Abarth 695SS and Fiat 500 are both delightful and satisfying kits to build.

Hi John,

The Aoshima kit looks good. If it's as good as the GTR, it will be a pleasurable build.

Anyway, what's not to like about a car with that Sccoby flat-4 ...

 

Cheers,

Alan.

Been very close to buying this one many times but not sure if the Aoshima or Tamiya one is the best. Also there is the Subaru BRZ that looks almost identical iirc.

Apart from badges, end details and standard tyres, the BRZ and Toyota GT86 are the same car.

Nice little Race-car!! The kei-cars make every classic Mini look big 😉

From my dear old ebay UK at a reasonable price..

But this wasn't..

It went for an eye watering price at auction  for £102! Yes I want one but not at that price, as a pensioner that would definitely break my budget!
