@Dippy... nice ride, is it a 1:18 scale and which brand is it, would love to acquire one as well. There is a guy selling one on ebay starting at USD 99.99, but the car is Not In Box. I saw one from ERTL Joyride - what's your opinion.

Yes it is a 1:18. I got mine from Ebay too Brand new in Box. It was costing 27 USD + Shipping. My cousin in the US bought it for me and sent it here with his sister. It is indeed an ERTL Joyride. Very detailed and it is an official product. Fantastic details as you can see in the pictures. I will click some day light pictures in the open

Before And After Pictures.

Hey guys. Here are some Before and after pictures of my F 430. Hope you guys like it.

oops, the left stripe has started coming out. Will have to reapply it.

Sorry for the bad quality pictures. Have to desperately buy a card reader for my Cam.

Guys can we have some kind of standard for listing. Cause Im always curious about the exact makes and scales of the scale models listed. Can we list them in the following manner?

Scale/Scale Model Make(Eg: Maisto, AutoArt etc.)/Vehicle Make and Model/Colour/Dealer or Hobby Edition

It would be easy to read as well as prevent tons of queries by fellow bhp-ians about scale and make and so on.

I hope we all do this in the future. Its only a small effort on our parts.

Typed it out that way first... but then I thought maybe you guys are wanting the sections divided. I feel as long as all the above main points are available (regardless of format) I think it should pass off well. Ultimately the point is to get all the info across in one organised decription...
Nice thinking BEEM3Rcheers: Hope all follow.

Hey guys. I had asked about this long back but didnt get an answer. How is the quality of the MOTORMAX ?? Or to be precise, How is their skyline??
And also, how is ERTL EVO??

How are these two quality wise compared to Maisto??

Here are the Pictures

Very nicely deatailed with opening targa tops, eject seat and winch. Even the red scanner in the bonnet works. The dashboard is replicated extremely well.

Hi GTA, I had posted the same question, only about the Saleen from MotorMax... Dippy replied to that, I've quoted him above. The MotorMax models are comparable in quality to Maisto, Welly and the likes... like Dippy stated, they cannot be compared AutoArt, Kyosho or MiniChamps.

IMO, the Skyline looks pretty neat. ERTL I feel has good details, I think they are comparable to AutoART, Kyosho et al, will have to check with Dippy bout that though, Dippy can you help us out
