V8 Vantage models

[qualityscrew]

At last a Roadster model is available!



This nicely compliments my Coupe model



My thanks again go to Kelvin at Red Firecracker for paintwork and registration numbers.

Where did you get it from?

This is very, very, very overdue.

Just struggling to get through to them because I've been waiting for this since before I got my car 15 months ago.

Thanks for the post!

Cheers. I didn't realise it was 1:43, I would have had one if it had been 1:18. My Aston model collection is fairly low in numbers, only got a DB9 coupe/volante and a DB7 coupe/volante. There doesn't seem to be a right lot of AM models in 1:18 scale.

Grand Prix Legends have a good selection George.
Some on Pre-Order only at the moment.

I've had the DBS coupe model on order for ages!

I also got my DB9 models and a few signed F1 models through them. Have to say they're pretty good.

Does this shop definitely exist? I still haven't been able to get through to them on the phone but wanted to check they had one before placing an order.

Which one? Diecast legends?

It certainly does, I've ordered quite a few models from them. Delivery can take a while but generally the service is pretty good.

The OP linked to 'Minimodelcars.co.uk' so that's who I've been trying to call.

While on the topic, dare I ask if anybody knows what the outlay might be to have someone paint it in the right colour?

I got mine through moto legends but there also for sale on ebay approx £32 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Minichamps-Aston-Martin-...

Diecast Legends have them.

They like to race them around the carpet, making brum brum noises

The paintwork on the Roadster above looks about the same quality as that coming out of the factory...

You can never have enough toys I've got loads of models of Mercs, barely any of Astons. They all seem to be 1:43 or pre-order

I can't remember exactly what Kelvin at Redfirecracker charges, but it's not expensive and he will do the interior and brake calipers if required and put your registration number on as well.
