Hey. I saw a few of the 1:43 scale cars at the Terenure show the other week around the 20 to 25 quid mark and couldn't believe the price. I collected these a few years ago for my son. You got a magazine and car every couple of weeks.The first few you could get at the shop and the price wasn't bad but they were just to get you hooked then they went to mail order only from the uk the price went up and the boxes kept turning up broken. They replaced a few but I gave up in the end. We have a big box full in the loft. There must be 30+ cars. I told the lad the prices and he wants to sell them either as a collection or individually for a fair price of course. I suppose I should make a list. Theres all the usual suspects Ford,Subaru,Lancia,Mitsubishi and some classic stuff too.

My collection has grown over the last couple of months. Still missing a few though so put up a list and I may be interested. Looking for a legacy actually

Theres someone ob here selling a huge collection in the brickabrac section I msged him no reply though
Might be worth a look

 

[axelf197]

He cant pm you back because hes not a full member. Anyway they are advertised as 1:18 scale which is bigger than mine. Mine are all 1:43 scale and I want to keep them all the same size. Personally I have had great enjoyment building up my own collection. i.e bidding on cars, sourcing them here, there everywhere etc. Dont mind buying 1 or 2 but buying someones elses whole collection would just not be the same... but thats my opinion

 

[JAMIE-TYPERV6]

Lovely collection Brian... Really want to get into collecting these 1:43 scale models. I've been buying the odd Subaru one of the last few years... I've a Burns S5 WRC from Rally Japan... and my most reent purchase which was the Liatti 'Dirty' Monte Carlo S5 WRC Impreza by Ixo models... Feckin love this one... detail is savage...

 

[axelf197]

Yea some of the "dirty" models are nice alright. Go on Jamie you know you want to !

I started this thread last November because I had nothing and wanted to get into it. Now I have over 40 cars and growing all the time :carexhaust:
