The Jaguar E-Type Coupe comes in red: a beautiful model which has extremely good interior detail, superb wheels, and fine other detailing such as the front and rear lamps and the flush glazing. A very good model.

MATCHBOX: DENNIS TIPPAX
The base of the chassis originally terminated behind the rivet but this was soon altered such that a brace connected both fuel tanks. The container is usually found with a hole in the front but some of the earliest models did not have this hole. All models were fitted with black plastic wheels but earlier models had knobby wheels whereas later versions had fine or very fine tread wheels.

MOTORMINT 1/18 SCALE - 1937 PEUGEOT 402 ECLIPSE
BBURAGO 1/18 MASERATI 3200 GT
Maserati 3200 GT Coupe Diecast Model Black 1/18 Die Cast Car By Bburago
Another fine model from Bburago, this time the Maserati 3200 GT of 1998. Improved detail is becoming the order of the day throughout the model industry, and this model is certainly living up to the standards being set.
Apart from the usual 'operating' features, such as the opening doors, bonnet and boot, and rear lamps, the dashboard detail, the engine, and especially the wheels. With a first class paint finish, and all the parts fitting perfectly, this is certainly a fine addition to any collection.

BBURAGO 1/18 BMW Z3 ROADSTER
We have now seen the BMW Z3, which is well up to the very high standards set by Bburago in this scale. It features a wealth of fine detail, particularly under the bonnet and in the cockpit, the head and rear lights being authentically reproduced. Equally, a highly detailed engine is provided, while the interior of the car is superb, especially in the area of the dashboard. Good attention has also been paid to the wheels, while the paint finish is superb.

YAT MING 1/18 SHELBY COBRA 427 S/C DIECAST MODEL
I started out with an idea to build a sports car powered by an American V8 at a time when most European sports cars were being imported with four-cylinder 1918 taxi cab engines.I went to AC Cars, because they had an available chassis, and i went to see Lee laccoca at Ford for a little money and a couple of engines to help me get started.We never dreamed we'd build a car to win the world championship and everything else, or become the legend it has.The Cobra has become the most replicated car there has ever been.I think that says it all right there. --Carroll Shelby
Shelby Cobra 427 S/C finished in red metal with twin white stripes from front to back. Many chromed parts, detailed interior, opening doors, bonnet and boot, detailed engine , moveable chromed wheels with treaded tyres, model length approx 21cm.
