I've recently picked up two Porsche RS Spyders from Norev and they're very nice.

They're a little more detailed than a UT Porsche 911 GT1 with a fanstatic molding and great wheels. The brakes let it down a little but when displayed they look very striking.

£20 bargain!

905 and R10 due in Spring



Hi,
I just got the No 6 RS Spyder for Christmas and was surprised to see it is the 2006 version. The no 6 above is the Laguna Seca 2005 car, the new one is a post-Sebring 2006 car (note mirror positions and new ALMS logos)


A bit more research yeilds the following:-

* The original #6 is the Laguna Seca car from 2005 - black mirrors, old ALMS logo. (note absence of RS Spyder logos on the nose - this is, I believe, a mistake - although there must have been a time when #6 didn't have them!)

* The #7 is the Sebring 2006 car (3 drivers)- red mirrors, new ALMS logo.

* The new #6 is from Houston or Mid-Ohio 2006 (2 drivers)- yellow mirrors, new ALMS logo but without a white background which appeared at Lime Rock & all susequent races in 2006.

Now I'll need all 3
