I have no idea if this is the right thread or not but it gets a lot of traffic (pun intended) so thought I would put it here.

I want a model of my car, preferably 1:18 but not set on that size. I have looked online and there doesn't seem to be any about.

Does anyone have any suggestions about how I could go about getting a scale model of my Citroen C1 Airscape Flair, in my spec? Can't be for a stupidly ridiculous price either!

I'm not sure you'll get a 1:18 one. Maybe a 1:24, and almost certainly a 1:43 one. As for the exact variant and colour, that might be stretching it.

I'd say you're best to try and find a good quality model of the car, and have someone with the right skillset repaint it for you.

Oh, thank you! Don't know how I missed that considering I looked there! Maybe I was being a bit naive as to size I could get

I didn't think of having it professionally repainted to my colour! Will definetly be doing that.
