minichamps do good ones and are the only one i know of.
there is a 1/43 scale one on amazon at the mo and a btcc lui one for Ł132. that is all there is online at the mo. took ages to get mine
modelzone come up trump sometimes too but they say they are no longer online and discontinued 1/18th wise but there are a few 1/43 there by the looks of it. wait around on ebay and they will turn up, sooner or later.
sorry fella.

The only white 3dr's are Minichamps & AutoArt. The Minichamps ones are about Ł35 on eBay & the AA ones are about double. AA ones have a lot better interior as it is all fuzzy and feels like carpet. The engine & wheels are better on the AA one aswell.

Minichamps




AutoArt



There are also 1/43 scale versions from AutoArt & Vanguards.

1/18 is nicer but more expensive.
