Interesting - normally I ignore the Corgi efforts as they're not that great - have they improved with this one then?

Well I peered at it in its display case in a shop over the weekend and thought it was pretty good for a standard faire sort of model?

andy_b · 9 Feb 2009, 19:01 (Ref:2391879)

keeping popping this on forums once in a while....

If anyone see's or has for sale a Secuirocor/Castrol BTCC Toyota Carina E of Will Hoy or Bailey (from 93 I think - but would consider any year really as I can paint it), then let me know!

This was the first livery I did and I saw a model in a shop at Spa in 94. Unfortunately, I was a pennyless student (well, having spent some of my grant for Spa!) and couldnt afford it.

Not sure of the manufacture, but it was a resin model.

PM/email me.

Not bad... http://www.flickr.com/photos/2837212...7607220392687/

Certainly not Minichamp standards though!

not me selling or advertising but 2008 1.18th steven kane model for sale. worth checking out as only 12 made

**touringlegend** · 12 Feb 2009, 19:28 (Ref:2396349)

I like that a lot. Assume it must be some sort of special commision from the team or Steven Kane due to the low numbers ?

Matt · 12 Feb 2009, 19:29 (Ref:2396351)

I like it too, I wish I had $200, haha.

VERY special!

Mind you, not as special as the Help for Heroes last meeting version!

It will be interesting to see if it makes the cost of having it made?

**Craig** · 21 Feb 2009, 12:59 (Ref:2401350)

Looking for the following BTCC cars in 1/43 at sensible prices:

1994 Volvo 850 - Lammers
1994 Ford Mondeo - Burt
1995 Ford Mondeo - Burt
1995 Ford Mondeo - Radisich
1996 BMW 320i - Winkelhock

Anyone looking to unload these cars by any chance?

tator2001uk · 15 Mar 2009, 15:15 (Ref:2416014)

**Craig** · 17 Mar 2009, 14:14 (Ref:2417396)

Yeah, have a look for me, eh?

tator2001uk · 21 Mar 2009, 18:29 (Ref:2421272)

**Craig** · 21 Mar 2009, 19:08 (Ref:2421333)

It should say on the box? If not, the car is #22 and, of course, in Schnitzer colours

tator2001uk · 22 Mar 2009, 18:10 (Ref:2422123)

well its the same as the ones on ebay that are of Soper #6, number 22 Winkys car schnitzer....thought i had the receipt for it too...whats it worth!!
hmmm it is a nice model

**Craig** · 3 Apr 2009, 17:57 (Ref:2432609)

PM me and let me know how much you'd be looking for.

I see a couple of interesting models on eBay right now:

2007 Team RAC BMW Tom Onslow-Cole
2007 Team RAC BMW Colin Turkington

redshoes · 3 Apr 2009, 19:31 (Ref:2432695)

Now available direct from the RAC website

Turkington Replica Die Cast Car
Onslow Cole Replica Die Cast Car

**Craig** · 4 Apr 2009, 11:41 (Ref:2433120)

Good find, Redshoes. I've got no interest in them myself (my little collection is limited to Super Touring era BTCC cars) but it is a shame that there are so few BTCC cars for the past ten years. What do we have exactly? From memory, the Breeze Alfa, the RAC Bimmers, a random Motorbase car I think?, and some dreadful looking Vectras... is that it? You'd have thought that they'd have done all manner of BMW, Alfa and Seat cars at least. If someone then did a Astra Coupe and MG then that's pretty much the whole field of recent times covered!

M.Lowe · 4 Apr 2009, 12:24 (Ref:2433159)

Thanks Red Shoes for the link
Got a Turkington one on order now
Edit
ordered the Onslow Cole one too

**BertMk2** · 6 Apr 2009, 15:35 (Ref:2435238)

That's about half the price they've been going for on ebay

PDS · 11 Apr 2009, 21:17 (Ref:2439010)

Half Price????

There are some at the moment for £60..

That's 4 times the retail price!!

**Craig** · 13 Apr 2009, 20:47 (Ref:2440016)

Okay guys. Just been going through this thread and here is a list based on the contents of the various 1/43 scale models of BTCC cars as I am aware. Please post any updates that you are aware of and I will edit it as appropriate.

[snip]

There is a 10,000 character limit on each post, it seems, so I have had to split the lists out. You can find them as follows:

Diecasts
Kits
Specials

btcckid · 14 Apr 2009, 13:01 (Ref:2440448)

**BertMk2** · 14 Apr 2009, 14:20 (Ref:2440510)

There are 2 Accords in the "Rock-It-Cargo" livery, one is silver the other white (don't know which is which as far as UPC goes). Both are Gravett cars though.

tator2001uk · 14 Apr 2009, 17:43 (Ref:2440653)

that soper model cheap being signed, real nice item

there was an old forum listing on here that had the smae list as the big one on here recently but lal the cars were linked to pics of each of them, i used to look through and admire haha

might sell a couple of my btcc cars hmmmm

**Craig** · 14 Apr 2009, 21:41 (Ref:2440841)

I believe you mean this site? That is where I got a lot of my info from but I went through and checked it and there were some mistakes and a number of ommissions (the Soper BMW above being an excellent example - nice find!) which is why I posted the updated list. Hope someone finds it useful?

Would be interested to see that 2004 Muller car if you can find it in your browser history? I'm not personally interested in anything outside of the Super Touring era BTCC but it'd be good to know what is out there for the sake of future reference.

Daz, are you certain both Rock-It cars are Gravett cars? I have a white Gravett car from 1998 (#29) and a silver Lee Brookes car from 1999 (#99) but dn't ever recall seeing a silver Gravett car?
