Visited gift centre at fountain after a looong time, and they have a mind boggling collection of BMW's, Gorgeous Bentleys (Priced at 13k),a Koennigsegg, GTR, and many more, all displayed beautifully! Must visit for Mumbaikars..

nice! its time to visit I guess... u've mentioned GTR, which GTR do they have?

Sometimes I wish some manufacturer would make 1:18 scales for Mercedes SLR McLaren 722 GT, & the Lexus LFA. BTW, LFA looks a stunner!!

They have an Autoart GTR which has been lying there for quite some time now. they also have a fantastic Nismo 350Z. worth picking up

I had this Pajero RC from a long time with broken chassis. This time repaired the chassis as well as repainted the body and wheels. The finish is awesome. Body will be matt finish

And here is the final outcome. The Matt effect clear coat effect can be easily seen from the pictures of the body, the earlier post had the body without clear.

Ram !!
The Merc is simply awesome !
Tiny scale models have a special place in my heart, as I do always feel they are far more difficult to cast and detail with the required accuracy.

I really really Badly want that Mercedes!!!! :( All it needs is a decent set of slightly bigger rims. but not the bling type. AMG rims hopefully.

I think there was one, not really sure. I was amazed at seeing such an exotic and well kept display after a long time. The GTR was an Autoart for 6.5K also there were a couple of M6 Safety cars..

I saw your pics of the car.
When I opened the box I saw the rear wheel bent in, I thought it was broken. Then I realised it was connected to the front. The steering is too sick. This is the first Toyota in my collection. For £10 I couldn't resist buying it.
