Yea, it’s made by Sun Star, they do quite a lot of older UK Fords but this one is a little disappointing. The colour is more cream than white.

Same as my brother in laws old XR3i then...

The back end of mine certainly regularly turned yellow with all the crap coming out of the Scorpion…

Search under way, thanks!

Are very good and do lots of shows

Thanks, I’ve seen them on eBay.

Very nice shelving there!

I've been told by SWMBO that I can have my models in a display, but it should be closed to avoid frequent dusting...
Any good ideas?
I'd love something along the lines of what Alfa Romeo's Museo Storico have in Arese, albeit a lot smaller (and maybe without the metal bits)

Wrong colours on the Touring but it's the closest I'll get to a mini set of these...

If you google Honda DC2 Integra models quite a few come up at a price from £130 to 300 My son has the real sized one had it 10yrs now original with 59K miles immaculate and thought I would buy him the model a bit pricy may look at a smaller scaled one

Otto also make them, but they were made a few years ago, so ebay will be the best place.

DC2 JDM spec (also a Mugen & Spoon version)

Sorry just seen this. Yeah £130 appears a bit pricey but they are good models and there aren't many euro (round light) Integra models around. I would say to someone with a DC2 it's worth it.

Two new additions (pre-ordered in August 2021!) from Authentic Collectibles - the first time anyone has released a model of the Holden VE Commodore road car in 1/18. I had to get one of each - Ignition and Phantom. Both limited to 1200 units.

Just got one of these gorgeous looking Ottomobile JCW GP3 models. Looks stunning in the flesh!

[oobster]

Mine arrived today too Guiddy. It’s a great looking model.

[McGee_22]

Ottomobile delivered my E34 Alpina Touring yesterday too - great interior and exterior detailing all over the car.

Otto Mugen FN2 is a bit tasty, love the Mugen GP wheels.
