Got a chance to visit the thrift stores today, and scored a Majo or 2 at my favorite store, but then I hit the secondary one...and Majorette strike heaven! I picked up about 7 more, pretty good haul this week. Most I've found ever at one time.
The pink dune buggy was actually found a few weeks ago at my fav store, but am throwing it in with this lot since I've got them all together. :) Not one of the more common cars, I"m sure, a dune buggy? In pink ? Love those spiral wheels on it.

I am very surprised the mirrors on the Hilux are still attached, given the chipped up condition on the truck. Great looking lot! I like the pink dune buggy as well.

That is a great lot. I've seen that there were dune buggies with the swirly wheels, but I didn't realize Majorette had a second buggy design. I will have to look out for one. Also a design on the Hilux I've never seen before.

I'm pretty sure that the Shell tanker was also available without a trailer.

Fire dept. Range Rover was also available with a matching watertank trailer.

The Indian tampo on the Jeep was one of my favorites when I was young.

That one looks like one of the one ones from the 70s, only missing the roof. It is weird that they had two different buggies in the line at the same time, for a number of years too I think.

I believe I have both in a two pack from the 70s, but don't have a pic handy to show. If I remember this week I will post it.

Edit: Managed to shoot a photo last night.

Thanks for posting that original 2-pack. Nice to see them as they were then. And what is missing off mine. Oh well, I did well, can't complain!

Those look awesome!!! Great TwoPack!

Some years later, they were still available ...but then with normal wheels and the one buggy lost already its roof (to save on costs?)

Yes, that's right combination. I bought this one at local store, over 20 years ago. I still have every peace, including a bull :)
