Thats a deal man, the problem in India is they usually do not give on sale

Hi all, can someone suggest a shop in Hyderabad or online store where we will get high quality scale models. Being a swift owner, I am looking to buy one

. Thanks, Hydswift.

I think I saw a high quality Scaled Model of Swift in Walden, Begumpet a few weeks ago. Checkout once if they are still stocking it or have moved the stock to their Jubilee Hills store.

I Bought two cars today, BTW Dippy, Just as I entered the Store, the Bburago guy dropped off another GTR. And it was white, So i picked it up too. Something special will be coming soon, if money permits.

BTW, for everyone...I FINALLY bought the ABARTH 500 ESSESS and the GTR. Both in 1:18.

Both are good buys Cyrus. Since there already a white GTR in Mumbai, mine is the first red one

Btw thanks for having him keep the car aside for me.

Update to the others:

Picked up a 1:18 Bburago GTR yesterday in red. Pictures coming on the weekend.

Probably a 300 SL gullwing

, I have ordered a 1:24 Bburago Gullwing and a Alpine Renault, will be arriving in a week's time. Sadly Pune doesnt have such stores which keep these scale models Or please for Adrenaline's sake, if there are then please update me.
