It's 1:43, I have couple of Ferraries in 1:32 and 1:24 Scale. An F1 car would be a nice match.

Love the MicroBus, however the gap at the A-pillar seems a lil too much, i think!!! The rag-top makes it quite unique

My very first D-I-Y 1:43 Diorama!

Guys,

After two sleepless nights, I've finally built my first ever diorama.

And at a cost of less than Rs.100/- (Excluding the cars and other tidbits, of course)

I've tried my best to replicate a typical Tata-Fiat Showroom. As time progresses, I'll add a few more details to make it more realistic.

And the best part is that it can be completely dismantled and stored safely.

Hope you like it.

Sorry for the shoddy worksmanship and photography. I am no expert!

The cars include
3 Tata Nanos (Norev), Fiat Punto (Norev), Fiat Linea (Norev), VW Touareg (Maisto), Audi A8 (Maisto) and the Renault R365 Tractor Trailer Car Carrier(Maisto)

They are available in 1:43 from MiniChamps as well.

You've had that profile picture for some time now, if I am not mistaken

I think we got are lines mixed up, I have seen the 1:42 Bentleys on the market, just not my market

... I've only seen it online... but I will call up my stockist and check if there is any that he might have, I haven't seen any in his shop though.
