I have a crisp £10 note with your name on it in exchange for that little lot - I'm doing you a favour, really I am.

The Escort Rally is totally standard apart from new bucket seats, spare wheel in the car & the paint. The Sierra started off as a white RHD Minichamps road car but I used the YB engine in a Mk1 Escort hence the EsCos small turbo. I also had a donor RS500 touring car for a few bit.

Completed listings on eBay will give you real world values. With a collection that big it may be worth getting a stall at a collector's/toy fair. Otherwise a trader on eBay with a massive feedback may take the lot off your hands. I feaar your best bet is to break it down into sensible lots. Plenty of people on here, including myself, would be interested in seeing the list!

Being updated as we speak - collection now boasts 124 of the James Bond Car Collection models (which should have stopped after 100 issues yet is now continuing until at least 135 models have been produced).
It also includes the Champion Rally Car collection that ran too, i think 16 cars, & i have just stumbled across the new Helicopter collection of die cast models that is only available either by subscription or direct from WHSmith.
First one is a cracking model of a Black Hawk - SWMBO hasnt seen that one yet.......
PM your email address's please & once completed i will email you the list of what i have got.
