Newfld The box is a repro but The car is original
Hi Mr. P , I bought this beauty from A seller on eBay about 3 1/2 years ago in Bulgaria. It even came with the original owners manual .These cars do to pop up from time to time but you need to know ...

Hi Gillian. Thank you very much for your comment . Yes I do collect Tiffany lamps but I have nearly run out of room in my house! I have about five of them. One Lilypond shade with the cattail bas...
Hi Malkey , no worries at all my pleasure. I believe the base is a reproduction (albeit a very good one) of the original dragonfly lamp that was exhibited at the Paris International show in early 19...

Hi fortapache. Yeah it was an awesome toy to play with . Corgi definatley triumphed on this one.

Thanks everyone !
Hi racer4four , I mostly find them on eBay but this one was offered to me privately by the former owner of the gen II green car I also have .
I just had a heart palpitation!!! Love it !! Want one!!!
Hi racer4four , yes I believe they used these cars for horse races and cycling events I.e :Le Tour de France etc
I think this one was also a bit special because my uncle had owned it before me for about 20years before I got it . So I always took good very good care of it
Hi PoliticalPinbacks , Thanks again :) Yes I am very grateful actually :) I have had a display cabinet in my room in one form or another since I was about 4 and was always taught to put them back whe...
Hi PoliticalPinbacks , Yes it sure is . Not the most powerful car on the planet but they are surprisingly quick and fun in the bends :)
Cheers racer4four :)
Hi racer4four , Yeah this ones definatley cool . Quite a rare colour combo for these cars as well, but I also love how it came together. I didn't have the heart to go full restoration on it. It has wa...

Hi PoliticalPinbacks . Thanks very much ! Wow I envy you :) I've always loved mustangs . They are great ! Would love to get a real one one day.
Hi Fortapache . Good idea . I will have to take some more photos :)
Hi there . Thankyou very much ! Yes I did have to do some light restorations with the Triang Miami (it was missing a windscreen and needed the chassis realigned ) and the two 1980 Moskvichs needed ste...

Hi Graumm . Oh you never know I'm always on the look out for unique peices so I'll let you know when my funds replenish. I have just bought a couple more and in negnotiations a couple more :). I agre...
Hi Graumm . I totally agree . I am a big believer in "preservation class" .To some it's just laziness but believe that certain cars and marques need to keep their originality and preserve their histor...
Hi Graumm . Haha then it's already too late for me ! . It only started out as a late night bid that turned into a "I wonder if I could I restore this one?" project. When the first one arrived (The T...
Hi Graumm . Thanks very much ! Yeah it's growing by the week at the moment .Beautiful collection you have there as well. I could only wish for some of the ones you have ????My "Brum" isn't really an o...

Haha Don Knots . He was a crazy character that's for sure!
TimeTraveller : Hi it took Steve about 6 weeks to make it as he made it from scratch . I'm not sure if it would qualify as carry on luggage as it comes in its own bespoke packing crate that he makes f...
Yeah it's better in person . I couldn't capture the true essence of how it shines at night . But it is close.
Caperkid .yeah she really is a beauty. She came from a private collection that was on sale in the UK. I understand it's the rarest of the colour codes for the Le dandy coupes . They also made the same...
They were all great but the first two directed by Robert Stevenson were the best in my opinion . They just had more heart .
