Its the van and trailer that does it for me. A model is a model but having the van and trailer creates a bit of a story "how did the car get on the trailer ie where did it come from, where is it going, whats it going to do when it arrives" etc etc. Perhaps just how my mind works but it creates more interest that just the original model.

autofocus I understand that your models may be very individual to you but a lot of them seem the same. I only have a few but very different BMW E30's, Fords cortinas etc

They're probably different versions of the same models. Like the cars are from different races or something like that.

A very impressive collection you have their how many have you got. I've been collecting since I was 12 (7 years) I now have 120 1/18s, 430 1/43s (172 of which are Porsches) and 2 1/12s A XJ220 and CLK DTM.
