Speed 12 Its mine

[pagles]

Yes Its true!!!

I finally found one at a price I can afford. I just cant belive it. The speed 12 is on my drive!!

It is I promise, Ok its only 1:18 scale but I have one.

Ive been in every model shop I can think of then yesterday it happened.

(Dad) Hmm lotus, Bmw, Merc...no Tvrs
why is that?

(Son (very excited) Dad its a TVR

(Dad) NO!

(son) It is!!

sure enough TVR Speed 12 1:18 scale by hot wheels.

Just me wants a a cerb now!

Ok I know TVR sell them but this was a model shop!!!

Let me know if you can get any other TVR`s apart from the TVR web site.

By the way it was £16.99 and worth every penny

which colour did you get purple or green. the only other widely available ones are also speed 12's made by Scalextric. quite a few different colours available mostly fictional but the Scania liveried one looks good and is still in the shops. special 2 car set from Index and complete set-up including track etc plus 2 cars from Argos, both exclusive to respective shops. I have 7 so far and there's at least as many again, some limited editions.
only others are those made by SMTS available from dealers or direct. also 2 polycarbonate Tuscan shells for r/c only available from the States.
happy hunting Al.

Ahhh

Scalextric!! forgot about that one, the afore mentioned son was lucky enough to get the TVR scalextirc from Santa. ( very nice too)

The HOTWHEELS I got was the puple one! and for the second time was stumpped on how to open the doors!!
as the door catch is under the body!!

Mr Pagles - wish you would stop distracting me from my work with your bloody cerb coming down Bellevue Road/Carlton Crescent! Makes me want to go down to the car park and bring my Tiv out to play

sounds lovely BTW.

I've got a Speed 12 by Scalextric in Demon Tweeks colours (well, it's red and has DT stickers on!).
Alas I have no track to run it on, so it's just gathering dust on my kitchen windowsill.

Hmmm.... Ebay perhaps?

I've got the Hot wheels one as well.
And I polish it every day, use Zymol.

I have the green Hot Wheels version - looks very nice.

TMS gave it to me as a gift when I bought the Cerb.

Just got the 1:18 scale green Hotwheels TVR Speed 12 for 5 quid at a toy shop sale in Atlanta USA!
Feels a bit slow for 800bhp tho!
