my first scale model car..! JAGUAR X-Type 3.0 V6 - 1:18, Maisto

speedfreak01 · 7th April 2008, 20:41

That Jag is too good to be a Maisto..!!

blackadder · 7th April 2008, 23:35

It is one of Maisto's good efforts and here is my X Type.

BEEM3R · 8th April 2008, 17:00

The X-Type itself is not much of a Jag. More a Mondeo. Anyway I dont think its an exemplary Maisto model, they've done way better. I guess the pictures make it look real good. I have it in silver and I wanna do something to it. Blackadder, love the SV but the lack of pop-ups again discourage me from that model. And please do post pictures of some of your other gems as opposed to an X-Type. Was wondering how an X-Type would look either all white or all black, including all chrome bits, and a set of different wheels, maybe similar to the ones on the SV. Might give it some more character. For now the X-Type is pretty soul-less.

I think the McLaren SLR and the HUMMER H1 are done in good measure by Maisto, have both of them and they seem quite good.

BEEM3R · 8th April 2008, 17:35

Yeah so is the Carrera GT, the Hummer H2, Z4 roadster, and the much beloved Audi TT roadster with baseball seats.
