The adverts in the models are also facinating.

Very good collection.

Finally was able to land my hands on the complete collection of Shell Ferrari cars.
Now to find some place at home to keep them. Wifey has strictly said "No" to new cars till I find a parking place in my apt for them

Cyrus43 · 5th September 2009, 15:43

One word of Advice. Dont remove them from their original packing.

flotsam · 5th September 2009, 16:16

Nice Suzuki, pulsar56!
Here is mine, from a different era:
Suzuki GSX1100S Katana, AUTOart 1:12 scale:
