Being that i'm a big kid and likes my model cars you can imagine my massive excitement when at the CCC i found that a 1:18 scale BX has been produced!
Ok, it's not a P2 Valver as i'd like but a GTi's damn near close enough for me! (besides, any P1 Valver "diesel looky-likey" boys out there should be happy).
Anyway's, i fortunately didn't have the cash on me as the price grew to a whopping £75 a shot at the stand as the day progressed. But, i've found the manufacturer in France and can import them for £50 each inc P&P.
They are resin, not die-cast but they're weighty and the quality's fantastic, they only come in red and they're a limited run of 1500 (each numbered).
So, if anyone want's one i'll be ordering mine at the end of the month and a group buy might save us a little on the P&P!
Any Takers???

That looks quite cool although the splitter on the front is missing! I shall have to pass mate but thanks for the thought!

Re: Model Cars...
I like very much indeed, but the price is close to my budget for real cars - even with the discount - so I will say no ta!
Cheers,
