@diecast
from where did you source it from?
ebay?

Most of my models are brougth from ebay or some retailers like scale-18.com

At the Value Forum Mall Whitefield, Crossroads - they have a Sports store which had a few models, there were a few 1:24 959 :)

@jatinpatel:The 1:18 Audi R8 Spyder(in the same colour as diecast's) by Kyosho is soon to become available at Automania in Mumbai for a whisker over Rs4000.

@Cyrus43:All the best for the BMW M3 Sedan.It's going to be a tough one.There's a member of DiecastXchange who managed to do a fantastic job of the BMW M3(E90).I believe he pulled it off by combining a BMW 330i Sedan and a BMW M3 Coupe,both 1 :18 Kyoshos.The end result is spectacular not least because the guy pays crazy attention to detail.He chose to paint his car blue,by the way.You've probably already checked it out but just in case you haven't,please do before you start.That fellow's also done some more custom projects,including a gorgeous blue BMW M1 road-car.
Oh and congratulations on the Skyline GTRs.I really to get an R33.Nice Subaru Impreza,too.Although,why didn't you go for the WRX STi?

@Cyrus Nice Skylines there. Where did you get the R33 from, I need to get one.

Haha!! Yes, I know which car this is. These are Rainer's car. I have spoken to him about it, but my approach will be very different. And not very difficult. Also, it wont be a full fleged M3, I wont be able to replicate the vents on the side. Only the Bumpers will be M Sport. Someone makes Resin Replicas. :D

Dont worry, Will post a good stage by stage thing here.

Got them from the Autoart clearance sale. Autoart UK has shut down! This was sadly the last. Ebay has a few good deals sometimes!

My recent buy:

Porsche 911 GT1 Street Version - UT Models












My collection looks like Bin Suleyam Garage now.

BMW M6 - Revell

Ahh sweet 911!!! isnt the Revell awesome bang for the buck!! :D I have one too.

Awesome new rides. Love the GT1

zibby, the 911 is a class act, just love it. And I like the details on the M6 Revell sure seems to have come a long way. I might be adding something to my collection soon.

Just picked up 4 new models

1. Mercedes Benz Model K - 1929 - from FM, I particularly love the detailing in this model, the seats, engine and finish are outstanding.
2. Ford Thunderbird (1/1000) - 1956 - from FM, This is a limited edition model for 'Russian Island' retailer.
3. Mercedes Benz 300 SL Roadster - 1960 - from FM
4. Mercedes Benz 450 SL Roadster - 1973 - from CMC, this is one of the earlier CMC moulds from back when they used to make 1:24 models... it isn't their finest work (the ride height needs work) and after seeing the CMC quality on my Ulhenhaut, I am a little disappointed. It is still a decent piece, just not CMC level although it is 'Made in Germany'

Thanks.
Revell are value for money, the detailing is way better than Maisto M6 even on the engine it say M V10 unlike maisto which reads M 6.

@RPMPKDMFF nice conv there. Like the detailing on model k.

That K is to die for. I must say, the most focussed collection on teamBHP just keeps on getting better and better!! :D
