Hi All,

Last couple of years I have slowly become an addicted collector of Modelcars scale 1:18.
Just for fun and for comments I will show my collection here. Just curious what you all think of it. I focus mainly on super and hypercars and Formula 1 cars.
Currently I own 58 cars in my collection, some limited editions and highest price paid for one car is €400 (Ferrari SF90 Stradale Pack Fiorano Hong Kong limited edition #02/32)

I don't have pictures of all my cars yet, but this is a good way to get them!

Curious to your comments!

You have some great looking cars there! Nice variety, too.

I was thinking that the BBurago Sián look surprisingly good, I should take a closer look at it in person someday.

Btw, which one did you pay €35 for? Was it the Sian or the Kyosho Veneno?

Anyway, thanks for sharing your collection, hope to see more soon!

cwbs,

I bought Bburago's Lamborghini Sian in metallic red with gold wheels last year. It's a great looking car (one of my favorites) at a very reasonable price.

I paid €35 euro for the Sian and it its really a bargain!

For the F1 cars I strongly recommend Spark or BBR, details are stunning! BBR is a little more expensive but Spark makes a better price / quality ratio. I always look for discount oppurtunities.

I have a few early F1 cars from Spark. Great details, but super fragile. Most of mine are Minichamps and Hot Wheels. I've thought about adding a BBR Ferrari F1, but never too sure. I guess I need to find the right race/driver combo. Cheers.

I always have the idea that Minichamps and Hot wheels are less fragile and less detailed. I have now 9 F1 cars and 2 in pre-order. There is really a big difference between a BBurago Ferrari SF16H (€35) and the BBR Ferrari SF71H (€200), for me it is worth the money. I can imagine that will not be the case for everybody. Maybe I just need to be convinced whether Minichamps, Hot Wheels and BBurago have improved on the quality...

It sure is, congrats on the find!

My attempt to collect 1 F1 car from each year - NEW...

I really enjoy my Formula 1 models. I like to see the evolution of a race car. Seeing the changes of technology and theory on how to make a car fast. This is my "wish list" for each year. Some of the earlier years are not filled in yet, but they will. I already have about 10 but will not strike...

Check out my F1 thread. I have all sorts of F1 models from many makers. It might help you out when searching for the next model. With GP Replica's and BBR and a few other new makers, it was tough to update the list with everything new. I still want to get more, but prices are getting high. It makes me more selective. I also am not interested in Bburago F1 cars. They look too much like toys.

I like your Cobra. Why is it called a "Hardtop"?

you can take the roof of the car, it is a cabrio then. But the roof is of the same material as the car. In this scale model metal, so not foldable and therefor hardtop.

indeed , the blue lines show off quite well!

I was a bit surprised that this cheap BBurago model makes such nice pictures.
