Great collection of bikes and a unique single model collection of Beetles. Arranging / catagorising them yearwise followed by photography may be a good idea


Look out for cars from Napoleon's land...

Re: The Scale Model Thread

Siddvi - classy Nomad
Taronish - I have seen a black F40 for the first time. Unique.

Now to the French cars in my collection: I have just three from France: a Peugeot 307 WRC, a 1971 Alpine Renault and a BBurago Bugatti type 34.

For Rs. 252 Crore - Gold scale model of the Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4

Gold scale model of the Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4| Zigwheels.com

If you thought the new Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 is an expensive car this scale model made out of gold and platinum is built to enter the Guinness Book of World Records. Read on to know more about the Rs. 252 crore scale model.

Robert Wilhelm Gulpen known for creating exotic scale models of cars has taken it upon himself to enter the Guinness Book of World Records by creating a 1:18 scale model of the Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 supercar out of solid gold and platinum. Only this time the 700 in the name of the car stands for PS of power but in this case the 700 stands for 700 pieces of precious stone per seat.

“Essentially, the model is made of solid gold and platinum. And it is not a model car. It is a piece of art,” Gulpen said in a press release.

The feat has been planned due to a personal request of a potential customer. Gulpen has built exotic scale models of cars from many leading car manufacturers for anyone with a taste for luxury and ofcourse lots of money. The exotic 1:8 scale model of the Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 is expected to cost around Rs. 252 crores.

Yeah saw the news on the topgear(website). The joke is who would buy this instead of having a fleet of the working lp700's and a sea of petrol to fill in it.

Re: The Scale Model Thread

Well from my side christmas came early this year was looking for this particular thing for a long time but its back in stock. For all those topgear and scale model lovers out there. i know this should be a must have, Some say he has a 1:18 resin body covered with white paint and a glued head all we know is he's called the STIG. The following pics have been sent to me by the seller online. I am thinking to buy the standing stig for my garage diorama.

@Amar: Thanks, I love that 307WRC, who makes it?
@Carrera555: Nice. Are they 1:24 or 1:18?

Here's my 1:18 - Citroen Xsara WRC 2004 France Night Rally Version from Autoart.
