My model car collection - 04-01-2008, 12:00 PM
Im into my models big style. Been collecting from a young child. Have nearly the whole Michael Schumacher collection from new, which values have inflated like a bastid since his retirement
But the past few years ive been collection 1/18 scale cars. Started off with the Obsolete UT escort Cosworth collection. Have the whole set 3 times over, and was the first person to modify the road cosworths and sell them on ebay. Made a tidy profit. Everyone is at it now so i gave up.
Hers some cabinets when i put them up 6 months ago. Different cars in places now as you will see further down.















This is how the cabinets are now with a few more additions










All my models are in mint condition and have mint boxes in the loft.

Must have well over 4k worth of models. (excluding the MSC ones, their prob worth near that alone)
I also have the whole collection (bar2) or the minichamps 1/43 Escort Cosworths.

135i in the top there in Sedona Red.

Latest addition, another E92 M3 but this time in Interlagos blue.



hope you like my pics.
Im sure my collection isnt anything on some of you guys, but im only just starting out (oh and im only young) haha

EDIT, some recent additions



1/18 996 Turbo



1/18 F430 Scuderia



1/18 Alpine White BMW M5




1/18 Melbourne red E92 M3.

I hope you like them

Stunning collection, the Scuderia looks lovely. When I have my own pad and money I'll also invest in a model car collection.
