Next up is another very special and unique VW T1.

Known as the Carlux this was a creation of Ernst Auwarter who was of German origin and was known for making minibuses.

He wanted to give his creation a different identity from the popular VW T1 and gave it a completely new look with a higher roof ( so passengers could walk to their seat instead of bending down) with curvature and tinted glasses, tall side windows and a front windscreen which was fully curved.

Only 24 models were made between 1960-63 and were bought by a travel operator from Switzerland for shuttling tourists especially in the Alps offering its 8 passengers more space and an incredible panoramic view.

This is a limited edition 1:43 Resin model made by Matrix and a total of 408 pieces were created of this particular 1963 version of the original Bus.

Bought a 1:12 model of the Royal Enfield Meteor in Stellar Blue yesterday. A touch expensive, but it's quite well-detailed. I highly recommend it for collectors, fans, and owners of the bike !

Some F1 scale models that I have not taken out of the packaging. 1:43 scale models are from Altas and the bigger 1:24 scale are from IXO.

Also a 1:64 scale RWB Porsche 930 with the transporter from How Wheels.

Japanese manufacturers had tasted success in F1, Rally and other forms of racing except endurance racing especially the 24hrs Le Mans. This was changed by a relatively small company based out of Hiroshima named Mazda.

In 1991 they created history by not only being the first Japanese company to win at Le Mans but also the only company to win with a rotary engine a record which stands till date.

The Mazda 787B was an improved version of the 787 developed and designed by Nigel Stroud which were raced in the 1990 event, but unfortunately had to retire due to excessive engine heat. The engine used in the 787B was the R26B which had 4 Rotor totalling to 2.6l. This engine was capable of producing 900hp (in 1991 ) but was restricted to 700hp to improve reliability and would produce 608nm of torque. And to top it all was the sound of the exhaust which was just brilliant.

During the race despite starting from the 19th position car no 55 was instructed by the team manager to go flat out as he and his engineer had seen how reliable and fuel efficient the car was during testing. This strategy helped in the early stage of the race and the car eventually moved up to third place. Totally the car covered 4,932.2 kms in 24hrs with an average speed of 205.38 kph to win the race.

This is a 1:18 scale model of the winning car no 55 made by CMR.

This 1936 Rolls Royce Phantom III was unique in many ways from having a massive 7.3 litre V12 engine that could take it up to a top speed of 145 kph to a odd front-slopping windshield that made it 15% aerodynamic. Also, this was one of the last Rolls Royce model to get a V12 engine as the next V12 came after a gap of almost six decades.

Mr. Alan Butler who was the Chairman of the De Havilland Aircraft Company, originally ordered the opulent sedan. He specified it from coachmaker HJ Mulliner for the front-sloping windshield and the car also featured an enclosed spare tire and sculpted tail.

The car was later bought by General Bernard Montgomery (Monty) who had served in both WWI & WWII. Out of his three Rolls this was his favourite and used it as a daily up to 1962.

This is a 1:43 scale model of the same car made by TSM Model

Had the purchased this model almost two years ago, but only managed to get my hands on it today. Totally worth the wait.

This car quite eloquently summarises what F1 is all about.... Innovation. There's a whole lot to read up on the internet, tons of videos and a lot of technical analysis about this car (so not going to write anything here).

Presenting the 1:18 Tyrrell P34 driven by Jody Scheckter at 1976 Swedish grand prix (model made by Exoto).
