I have to admit to home advantage on this one. They were first made in my home town and the showroom was opposite the bus stop I used to go home from school. steve

Nice stuff! Thanks. Like the 'period' feel of the Batmobile shot. steve

Cobraman, The blue one that isn't a Cobra is one of these - http://www.arkleyss.com/ Actually, I quite like the TR4A coupe... steve

Being sent a copy of the model railway magazine that had printed my article about a layout I have built, plus a nice cheque to go with it... steve

Pleased to see someone else here in the UK has the kit! I'm guessing you imported it and it didn't come off a shelf. steve

Didn't work from MacBook or iPad... steve

Same problem. steve

Kai, Do you mean styrene sheet? If so, it's readily available in the UK. Try here https://slatersplastikard.com/ Also Evergreen can be found in many model shops. http://www.sherwoodmodels.co.uk/prestashop/127-evergreen-white-plain-opaque-styrene-sheet If you go to any decent sized model railway exhibition you are bound to find a trader selling it. steve

The diesel railcar in the OP is German and their nickname was Pig. It would appear someone went the whole hog on that one... steve

I love the way this is coming on. Never seen that dragster kit before. Would buy one if I did! steve

That is superb and I completely agree with you about it being one of the best looking F1 cars of all time. There is a replica 156 in the Ferrari Museum at Maranello (I've seen it there) that was built for a film. (Chris Rea's La Passione) steve

I find these type of competition cars (Modifieds, etc) amazing. There is nothing like them in the UK. steve

Very nice indeed. Looks like it would be a fine 1:1 ride too. steve

Thanks to all. Some food for thought there, especially yje 1:1 ifo steve

+ 1 steve

That is a splendid piece of work. steve

The headlights don't fit, the grille doesn't fit; who's to say that hardtop will... steve
