Re: My model car collection

Wow. Great collection.

I used to have a million of the smaller ones growing up. I have no idea where they are now. There were several Mercedes and Cadillacs that I just absolutely loved back then. Hmmm...I wonder where they are...

Re: My model car collection

A couple of months ago I moved mine into a different room. Still in the boxes. The room I was going to make into a diecast display room, my wife has decided will be a better home theater. So I may never get to display my 1700+ 1/18 cars until I get a warehouse to store the big ones in too.

Re: My model car collection

1700+? damn. I have about 200, but I stooped collecting few years back primarily cause of the space issue. I still buy the occasional F1 car.

Not just any old escort Only the legendary Escort RS Cosworth

What a car that is, Im sure many of you recognise the Rally ones from back in the 1990's.

I wanted one for a while but after searching through so many i gave up looking for a good one. There are good ones about but there all low mileage mint condition ones which i would be scared of using hard. So got a BMW instead

Nothing compare to yours but I have a few, it is difficult to find cars that you want that is made from quality manufacturers. This is my list of 1/18

UT model
Mclaren F1 LM
Mclaren F1 Long tail version

Maisto
Audi R8 Le Mans winner (2000)
Mercedes CLS 500
Mercedes SLR (dealer edition)
Porsche 500 Spyder

BBurago
Ferrari F50
Ferrari F360 Modena

Minichamps
Audi TT

Koysho
BMW Z8

Autoart
Lamborghini Murcielago Roadster
Ford GT

I have a few models on my wish list, a Kyosho Ferrari Enzo, or the BBR Enzo, a decent AC 427 Cobra model, Ferrari 250 GTO (can't find them anywhere) and various Autoart models.
