I like this guys lack of style
Finally the big one's come, pun definitely intended :lol:

I may have another classic bit of Eurotrash, but I may settle with an 80's yank of some sort :rolleyes:

Just a quick question on this- I'm judging this round since I stick to 1/64.

Are original paint schemes okay, or shall we stick to just real drivers?

Ok - Vans are NOT allowed, we'll probably have a seperate van contest at some point - I think it's unfair on the people who only have cars as the vans have so much more surface to do signwriting on - I have a large Corgi Ford Transit but I won't be using it :)

Yep, real drivers as always

....they might be a bit too big....especially the Capri!

See what others have to say, I think all of us are sticking at roughly 1/43 or 1/38

lol, the Capri may be a ickle bit too big :lol:

I personally have no problem with the RC entering, but maybe it's a little out of proportion?

I see nothing wrong with an RC car. If I was entering, I'd be using a 1/18....

Knowing my luck I'll probably completely screw up some minor thing on mine and have to re-do it :lol:

True to my word I'm having to completely redo the signwriting on one side - the drivers side :rolleyes:

Oh well, still got 3 weeks to get it done in :lol:

Mine is done, stayed in all day today to get it done :lol: - Thanks to Mookie for sending me a large scale car, finding it hard to get hold of any recently, so cheers Mookie.

May add some more to the car, how long we got left now?

I've only fitted door plates and fixed the back axle on mine (it kept coming loose), still need to paint it which won't be for quite a while due to Christmas and the new year :(
