They just need to do an S1 RS Turbo and Mk4 Stuff!

I take it the '1984 xr3's' are just mk3's?
the capri is due june/july keep your eyes on thes 2 version rhd & lhd the r/h/d are an exclusive to a trade warehouse in derbyshire

the police escort (model icons based on sunstar) is sue august

the minichamps rs2000 has been in there catalogue for over 2 years as "comming" along with an rs1800

the rs cosworth was anounced the begininig of this year 4 quarter release but i wouldnt hold your breath if i was you hope this helps

Don't you remember a while ago where 'we' made him crash, as he got wound up, and apparently his family, who are essex's version of the mafia, were going to come find us all and make us sleep with the fishies? Well apparently he's in hospital, and his gf is posting. And within a couple of weeks, he's gone from being nearly dead, to on crutches (err, I call bs). Basiclly he's an ASW and doesn't want to admit he was talking shit.

Isn't trolling against the rules on here?

Got any pictures of your 'evo' or any of the other cars you 'own'?

Who 'valued' that bmw? A blind man? Actually, no, even a blind man could tell it's shite.

did mine over 2 years ago,think was the longest i have spent on a model.I used a solido Focus rally car,had a bodyshop paint it,filled the roof holes in,i used the solido base plate then grafted a ut Escort cossie interior into it,pain in the arse that was,trimming the dash down as the doors wouldn't shut i used a sierra cossie engine mounted transversly.Interior i tried to replicate as best i could,i even used black felt for roof lining & the A & B pillars.

How much filler do you usually use.

I have got it roughly where i need it in Milliput, so is it best to just have the thin layer of filler?
