Yeah I seen them on the website, I posted it a page back I think, otto do some good models but they sell out really quickly then go for daft money on eBay. I'm watching 2 Leon Cupras by them just to see if I can make a profit by re-selling them.

I wasn't to bad the last time, the most I ever spent on one was £80 iirc

The Escort I bought is Sunstar, although there not the best quality models out there but there the only ones who do the MK2 Escort rally cars.

Going to have to by a sexy display cabinet too

I can see me spending a fair bit on certain models, definately over the £100 mark, they dont go down in value though so it's almost like an investment, or atleast that's what I'll tell myself people buying Autoart Evos all them years ago for normal prices and now they're worth 4-5 times their purchase price.

This Evo will probably go up by another £20-30 in the last hour, same as what I just bought for £30 but in black, I was going to have a bid but I'll leave it now.

Them Evos were pennys years ago, I had 2 and got them both for £10 (each).

The worst thing about collecting them is if one has a slight defect and you get upset about it , thats actually what made me sell up the last time because a few had defects. My Mum won't be getting near them to dust this time
