AUTO ART 1/18 1988 BLACK AUDI QUATTRO DIECAST MODEL CAR
Audi's Quattro is legendary. The company's greatest achievement has been to recognize the advantages of all-wheel-drive and then to single-mindedly pursue the necessary technology. The sleek and aerodynamic styling today's Audi models are a preface to what its cars have always been about - performance. This dedication shows in these miniature die cast replica model cars. Engineering was at its heart, so racing and road rallies were a natural outlet for the car's somewhat conservative, yet powerful personality. A high-end automotive investment for true aficionados, detailed diecast models are a real favorite for those of more modest means! This model features opening hood, trunk,doors, and steerable front wheels. This 1988 Black Audi Quattro Diecast Model Car is truly a collectors item.

CORGI 1/43 LAND ROVER LAST OF THE SUMMER WINE
Three old school friends - the self styled leader, the timid dawdler and the mischievous scruff-bag with nothing to do and all the time to do it. Corgi have reproduced the scruffy one with Wesleys Land Rover in this charming set.
The much missed Compo is seen ensconced in an armchair held precariously on the back of a Land Rover in this scene from the BBC comedy. The Land Rover is familiar to everyone, and the cold cast figure looks realistic to smell! Shop here

VANGUARDS 1/43 AUSTIN A40 FARINA - BIRMINGHAM POLICE
Birmingham Police used a large number of A40s during the late fifties and early sixties, mainly as local beat Panda Cars or unmarked transportation vehicles. Superseded in some roles by the 1100 range, with which it shared its engine, the A40 continued to be used in Mk2 form because of its capacious storage and the ease with which equipment, carried by some branches of the force, could be reached through the Countryman’s opening rear window.
Although styled in Italy the A40 was engineered and produced at Austin’s headquarters at Longbridge, on the outskirts of Birmingham, meaning the force was supporting their local manufacturer.
The model features chrome detail, detailed interior, photo-etched wipers and roof light. Shop here

MATCHBOX REGULAR WHEEL NO.36C - OPEL DIPLOMAT
In fact, it was issued in gold with a white interior. It featured an opening bonnet revealing a chrome plated, or, more rarely, a grey plastic engine. When iewed through the front wheel recesses in the base, it may be seen that the bonnet hinge pin blocks were strengthened from lmm wide to 2mm wide on later models.
Earlier models had no number plate or tow slot. A number plate was quickly added and subsequently, in common with other models, a tow slot was cast behind the number plate, which was itself enlarged.
It is another of the more common models still common, paratively easy to obtain today and rouses little interest. It is therefore pertinent to record that a colour trail model, which had originally been found boxed and painted in turquoise, exchanged hands in the US for $9000 in November 1999. These models may be small in size but never stature, and in some case value. --Model Collector
