I had a Scalextric set back in the sixties but sadly all I have left from then is my AC Cobra. However, a relative gave me a small figure-of-eight set for Christmas a few years ago, with a not terribly inspiring Audi TT & Porsche Boxster. The set has never been out of the box, but recently I have bought a few cars, mainly for the cars rather than the fact that they are slot cars.
Recent purchases have included a very nice old Scalextric Lotus 21 for my Lotus collection & a Cortina GT, Vic Elford's 1964 Coupe des Alpes winner. I bought it from Vic's shop & he duly signed it for me. I got to know him quite well a few years ago but he is sadly now rather unwell. I have a few other Cortina's as well, including an old MRRC version.
One day I will get the track out & see if they all work!
