Marevo: Regret that I didn't keep a record but around 70 - 90 quid springs to mind. I put a few 1:18s on ebay just before Christmas 2008 including a trio of mint 1:18 McLaren F1 GTs which all fetched well over £100 and were bought by overseas buyers. Looking at completed listings on ebay recent UT 355 prices do seem to be around the twenty pound figure. With Hotwheels back on the scene I suspect it has depressed prices of second hand UT Ferraris. Ebay commission, Paypal fees and ridiculous postal charges are stifling selling online. It may just pay you to wait until late November or try the FOC website as they have a classified ads or even stick an ad in Auto Italia Mag.

DrYazz: Hopefully from what's been posted on here you will have gathered that the UT is the best 1:18 die cast there is for general display purposes. If you visit London and want to see some even larger scale model hand built Ferraris drop into St Martins Models in St Martins Lane. Be prepared for prices around £3,000+.

My cousin has one and i always thought it would look great on an 8th scale RC chassis, Obv not extremely detailed or in perfect scale. they come up on ebay occasionally
Definitely big!

I will be polite and say on this occasion that I will pass on that .

Well, I got a 1:18 red UT F355 Berlinetta off the interweb thingy.

Got to say, not overly impressed. I have a Bburago 1:18 Ferrari 348 TB and I expected the UT F355 to be more detailed and of higher quality. It isn't.

The luggage compartment at the front does not open.

Brake discs have no detail at all on them.

The rear tyres have the same width as the front!!!

Anybody know of a model other than a UT to go for?
