How many of you in Europe collect Aussie models?
Just trying to see how popular the miniature V8 Supercars etc. are in Europe.
 Do you collect Australian model cars, how many do you have, and what are they? |

Thought I'd be first in
I now have 13 1:43 cars from 2005 and all 20 1:43 cars released so far from 2006. Also have 2 2005 cars (Ambrose/Ingall) and 4 2006 (Bright/S Richards/Courtney/Ingall) cars in 1:18, and have the Lowndes/Whincup Bathurst winner on pre-order. Really looking forward to that one as it includes a replica of the Peter Brock trophy. Would highly recommend the V8 models to all! |

Just started collecting Aussie Champs in 1/43, plus some that take my fancy!
Your Australian models are so detailed and cheap compared to minichamps! 1989 ATCC FORD SIERRA RS500-P.BROCK#05 1993 ATCC BMW M3-A.JONES#20 1994 ATCC BMW 320i-T.LONGHURST#25 1995 ATCC BMW 320is-B.MORRIS#2 1996 ATCC AUDI A4-B.JONES#3 1996 ATCC BMW 320i-B.MORRIS#1 1997 ATCC BMW 320i-B.MORRIS#23 1997 ATCC FORD FALCON-G.SETON#30 1998 ATCC HOLDEN COMMODORE VS-C.LOWNDES#15 1999 ATCC HOLDEN COMMODORE VS-C.LOWNDES#1 2000 ATCC HOLDEN COMMODORE VS-M.SKAIFE#2 2001 ATCC HOLDEN COMMODORE VX-M.SKAIFE#1 2002 ATCC HOLDEN COMMODORE VX-M.SKAIFE#1 2003 ATCC FORD FALCON BA-M.AMBROSE#4 2004 ATCC FORD FALCON BA-M.AMBROSE#1 2005 ATCC FORD FALCON BA-R.INGALL#9 2006 ATCC HOLDEN COMMODORE VZ-R.KELLY#15 2006 ATCC FORD FALCON BA-C.LOWNDES#888 |

I've like to collect Dannii Minogue, Isla Fisher, Melissa George and Holly Valance, if anyone knows where to get them.

I have 2; from the 2005 V8 Supercars, the Ambrose and McConville cars. Costs a fortune to import them from Oz though, although their excellent quality

I buy 1:18 though, so maybe thats the difference? I presume you mean 1:43 Minichamps?

Yup, the 1:43s are less than a normal Minichamps model even including postage (about £23ish each), but the 1:18s are around the £70-80 mark.
