LAND ROVER SAFARI



I bring a car Land Rover Safari to my blog. This diecast car is a Matchbox Regular Wheels No.12. It was produced in England in 1965. I have 2 cars with 2 colour.The first one is blue,light tan roof luggage, clear windows, black metal baseplate,white interior and small support behind tow hook on baseplate. The another one is green with dark tan roof luggage. This diecast car is over 40 years. The real car Land Rover Series is a first pattern of 4 wheels drive. In the present era is regarded as a very durability, some of them have been used for more than 40 years. It is still seeing them running on the road. As a diecast collector, it seems to collect it. Must be this one.

JADI 1/18 TRIUMPH TR4 DIECAST MODEL CAR

Triumph TR4 Diecast Model Yellow 1/18 Die Cast Car by Jadi


In 1952, the Standard Triumph company of Coventry under the then director Sir John Black, showed their first sports car, the prototype 2OTS, at the Earls Court Motor Show in London. Series production of a modified design with improved technology began in 1953. The car, from then on known as the TR2, sold successfully. The sportiness and reliability of the new product was underpinned by numerous successes in races and rallies. This was followed in 1956 by the almost identical TR3, in 1958 after a face-lift, by the TR3A and then from 1961 onwards by the technically improved TR3B. The Triumph TR4 was exhibited in September 1961 as the successor to the cramped but sporty TR3A. It represented an attempt to leave the competition trailing behind by means of a readiness to innovate that was out of the ordinary. The external appearance of the TR4 alone indicated that it was not simply a further development of its predecessors. The Italian designer Giovanni Michelotti styled a new metal body shell to fit over the widened chassis of the previous model.

MISTO 1/18 SCALE - CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE

Chrysler Crossfire Diecast Model Grey 1/18 Die Cast Car By Maisto

Maisto makes terrific die cast models. This one is no exception. If you own a Chrysler Crossfire, or wish you did, you might enjoy having this highly detailed model to park somewhere indoors where you can admire it when you're not enjoying the real thing. The details are very good - hood, doors, and hatch all open. But that by itself doesn't guarantee a great model. Fortunately here, the details are all correct, with even the smallest parts faithfully modeled in the correct colors. The steering wheel moves together with the front wheels that may be posed in a range of positions. I like that Maisto even with to the trouble of making the wheels and tires the right sizes - with the correct proportioned smaller front wheels and tires and larger rear - to give the model the same aggressive appearance sitting on your shelf as it has at the curb! This model is of the normally aspirated, six-speed manual, so SRT owners go begging (or face the challenge of finding a 1/18-scale set of upgrade parts to make it so)! --Paul Mark Provencher "ppro"

IXO 1/43 SCALE - 1965 MORRIS MINI VAN - ROYAL MAIL


This model dates from 1965 but the year letter C is missing. The registration number typeface is wrong too. To our eye, side on, the van seems too long and thin. From the front it captures the look well. The rear has mesh covered windows and there's a door security bar. Buy it now.

NISSAN NISMO 350Z S-TUNE GT


Nissan's NISMO 350Z S-Tune GT is a specially developed super car version to celebrate their victory at the Japanese GT500 Touring Car Championship in 2004. Only 20 are hand-built every month in Japan. They are not officially imported into the UK, except for one that raced at the 2005 Goodwood Festival of Speed. It's been very favourably reviewed as standing comparison with the very best of European super cars.
This model certainly captures the mean stance and look of the real car. The grey metallic paint is very well applied. The lights front and rear are impressive too. You get a good view of the interior of this right hand drive vehicle through the large windscreen. Very impressive. Buy it now.
