In the 1:1 world I drive BMWs and can't imagine any alternative but here is my ideal 3 of non-Bavarian vehicles which would suit our needs pretty well - the Vette for obvious reasons, the Fiat 500 for commuting and shopping - you can drive like a complete hooligan and nobody will care as it won't go over 60mph! - and the Koach for Amanda and I and our 4 kids. I wanted to bring out the inner Ferrari that I see in the Vette, and I found a couple of 4-bbl carbs and some better tyres for it as well as opening up the front vents in the scoop to let hot air out from the radiator. With the Koach I cut off two of the injector stacks (8 stacks / 8 cylinders) as I prefer it like that, although I know the original had 10. No plumbing, brush painted models that look fine on the shelf if a little dusty, people like to pick them up which is ok with me. I just wanted to post something!
