Biante have now gone bankrupt which probably means this model is a no go. Which is a shame.

Me too,iv been waiting for years to have a 1:18 rouse kaliber! Iv had a look at your link, good work, fingers crossed now then! I'm sure they could sell them no trouble and grandprix legends must have a big list already and minichamps are normally cheaper than biante.
