Does anyone have any? There were WAY too many stands at Le Mans selling models that I had to get one, got one at Goodwood so I now have a small collection. Ive more in the loft from my youth aswell so ive been informed by my rents. I have old Brum ones somewhere aswell as two IXO models I got on my recent travels. So anyone else? Or am I just sad?

I don't anymore

Used to have a few 1:18 ones but gave them to my nephew.

1:43 ones always were too small and not detailed enough IMO, I preferred them to be bigger and have more working features.

Bburago ones were what I had, only about 8 of them though.

I had them only to rag about on my carpet as a youngster though. My IXO ones are really good quality actually. Good to look at, not to play with though. Not for opening doors and shit haha

They are, the front ones on the S4 are different to the rears, but they're not on that model
