Hi Guys,

I got my GMP 2-Post Lift and also their 1:18 Garage Accessories.

Im yet to buy a nice new display cabinet. I think Ikea has some. Once I get that Ill shoot pics of the cars and the diorama and post pics. Sorry just havnt had time. Blackadder Im sure you'll love these.

You bet I like it already. The next logical step to collecting cars is creating dioramas and what better way to start than a garage diorama. Looking forward to how your garage turns up Beemer. Have you got the human figures to go with the garage theme?

Great car there Cyrus.
But Chrome wheels on a WRC car. Too much bling bling..hehe

Beem3r that garage setup looks cool.
By the way is that lift for a 1:18? Does it work? Also can you post those accesories part in a bigger size.
And one last question What brand is it and where did you get it from?

Is it locally sourced (from chennai) or got it from abroad?

Cyrus43 · 23rd November 2007, 00:44

looks cool buddy...how much did u buy it for??

blackadder · 23rd November 2007, 21:46

We really need someone who can get such stuff for us here in India. The chaps at Modelart certainly dont seem to look beyond Maisto, Autoart and Signature. All of us who know Nikhil at Gift Centre should convince him to seriously start thinking of importing other model brands to keep our hobby running. Nikhil certainly is the most proactive when it comes to selling diecast in India.

Not crazy about the blacked out lights, but I think the black wheels look fantastic.
