The Vantage is in Gift Centre. Ask Nikhil, He will get it for you. The CLK is at Hibby Planet at Shivaji Park. RR at GC only, but as it has a crack.......

You guys sound like Importers.

After going through the thread for few days, even i would like to start my collection. I do travel out, but can anyone from Kerala point out the spots to look out for good Scale Models ?

OT - @ McLaren - Why is your post count still in nought ?

Cyrus43 · 18th February 2010, 23:30

HAHAHA!! You should see me talk on the Phone. Just today I was arguing on the phone about not getting the SL65 AMG.

Saw this a couple of days back. On a personal note, I am quite skeptical about purchasing these scaled cars from Ebay. I would love to touch them and feel them before buying them. I would love to adore its beauty and caress it before making it mine.
