I'm looking for decent scale model of a Porsche 917k. I would also consider an LH, but let's set things easy as a 917k in Gulf colours for now! smile

Google has thrown up various £22 models, but I'm lookingfor something with a bit more details, and larger than 1:18.

It's for a gift, and budget is upto £150.

TIA smile

This on eis a bit good as well;

The Fujimi is an excellent kit, although 1:24th.

If you are after a diecast model, so prebuilt, the Autoart is quite something;

Not sure if there are larger than 1:18th available.

Try this...

It's a great website.

They do quite a few different versions of the 917 and many, if not all are signed by Vic Elford smile

They're in the 'States though so you will have to pay import duty for the full amount.
