Driveable scale model cars

[chunkymonkey71]

A few years ago there was a story about driveable scale model cars. I think there was an E-Type, a Mercedes and possibly a Corvette. They were petrol engined (but had an electric option). They looked like great fun!

I believe that one of you guys became an importer for the company too.

Can anyone find a link to the website or the article that was on here? I've had a wee look but can't seem to find it.

I remember the cars you are talking about but google is only bringing up toy model cars.

Are you referring to Pocket Classics? There was a story run on them a couple of years ago:

I saw a miniature Cobra body recently on an American antique type show.

It was made to fit on a go-cart.
