MOTORMAX 1/18 CHEVROLET CORVETTE OF 1958

1958 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible Diecast Model Red 1/18 Die Cast Car By Motormax


A 1/18th scale model is certain to look impressive in the display cabinet, and that certainly is the case with the Chevrolet Corvette of 1958 as modelled by Motormax. This open version looks stunning in its red and white, with plenty of chrome trim. This trim extends to such areas as the interior of the car, with the instrument panels neatly shown.

The bonnet opens to reveal a highly detailed engine, while the boot like wise opens. The front wheels steer, and have suspension, while the doors also open.

Fortunately all the opening features are a good fit, so do not detract from the overall appearance of this fine model.

MINICHAMPS 1/43 FORD MONDEO IN ESTATE VERSIONS

The model of Minichamp's Ford cars is the Mondeo estate. In Ghia form, this is still a handsome car, and the model features the chrome grille surround and rear door pillar badges to mark it as the top of the range car. The interior is nicely moulded, as are the wheels and grille. Perhaps the roof rack is a tiny bit over-scale. All in all, though, an attractive model. Shop here

CORGI 1/76 VAN HOOL ALIZEE - GREENLINE

Arrival the Shires 4063 is a DAF SB3000 with a Van Hool Alizee body new to the private charter fleet of Grey Green Coaches at Stamford Hill on 1 August, 1994. Four identical coaches were transferred to ‘the Shires’ in 1998 for use on Green Line 758 between Hemel Hempstead and London, Victoria. The model is presented in the latest Green Line livery by Best Impressions which 4063 received in 2006. Registered M943 LYR, 4063 was one of the last coaches delivered to Grey Green before the business completed its switch to London contracted bus operation and was subsequently absorbed into Arriva London; ending a sequence of Grey Green registration numbers which began with SJJ 300, a Leyland Tiger Cub/ Harrington, in 1956. Smooth-riding and solidly-built, 4063 is likely to receive enhancements which will enable it to continue to run into London after July, 2008, when unmodified Euro 1 vehicles will be excluded from the London Low Emission Zone.

MAISTO 1/24 LAMBORGHINI MURCIELAGO LP670-4 SV

This car model is a perfect gift for car lovers. It is a good size and nice color. The doors open up like the real Lamborghini and so does the trunk. These parts seem kinda fragile but if you're careful then they will be fine. The cool thing about this car is when you turn the steering wheel inside the car, the front wheels turn. Overall a very nice product.--kristina  Shop here
