Hi Bomber, you need to talk to this guy: www.modelcarworkshop.nl.

He has made a superb model replica of my Fiat Dino Coupe based on an available 1/18 model down to the tax disc & GRRC window sticker. It is so good I have commissioned him to do models of 2 of my other cars as well. You can find on this forum under the name MCWS.

Gate & Kyosho made a 1/18 scale version of the Mk1 (& Mk2) MX5. They do pop on eBay now & them but can be pricey as they arnt made any more. The Kyosho version comes with a hard top & pop up headlights but personally, having had one of each, I prefer the Gate version. Engine bay & door sills arnt painted that well however. Both do come in dark green aswell.

There is also a 1/43 scale version that came with a magazine. Del Prado I think is the brand.

Ebbro made a 1:43 mk1 MX5 a few years back. Rare now but you might find one on ebay occasionally.

Sorry for the thread resurrection but could you post a picture of your Fiat Dino, either the real one or a mdoel.

My dad has just bought one and I would like to get a model of it for him for Christmas so would be interested to see it. His is a non running red coupe, I haven't seen it yet but should do soon.
