Finally have an exact model of my car.

[RacingPete]

Same here (well it is my Dad's), and had to build it also...









Build thread was here - https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&...

Same model, same colour (magnetic blue). Probably paid too much to get it from the States

I had to make an exact model of my real car, Mk2.5 Focus ST 3dr. Bought a red model & painted it myself Performance Blue.

I don't have a pic available for the finished model, but there are quite a few S1 Elises available in 1/18 scale.

Looks like the wing mirrors are wrong to me.

Any pics of the model? I used to have a 1.9GTI and managed to find a very good model of it a few years ago by some obscure manufacturer, but it's a very good likeness of the real car. I miss my 1.9GTI!!

Good news for 205 GTi Owners, this has just been released: Norev 1/18 205 GTI 1.9

Looks fairly decent and from what I can see, the colours are all the same as mine. May have to get one! Only thing I may have to look into is getting a larger Gutmann rear spoiler made to match my old car.

I’ve got a solido GTI as T16 both 1/18, might have to snap this one up!

I love how the wheels look hand polished like they were on mine! Sold it before the salt ruined them fortunately!
