Default Otto Mk2 xr2

Hi all,

Just wanted to get people's opinions on why this model is so rare and expensive.

Same amount were made as all the others?

I've been looking for months and not seen anything below £150 which is just crazy!

Probably because they are limited numbers.
A lot of traders buy them to sell on.
I always buy 2 of each Ford model for my collection

Yes prices are a bit mad... But people are willing to pay it!

I'd love the Moonstone Sapphire to go with my 1.1 scale.... I ain't paying double or triple the original cost though!

Agreed guys but they are all limited numbers and I have managed to get all the others below £100 over time but the mk2 xr2 just seems unobtainable unless wanting to pay 150+

What was so special about this model? I'd pay £100 but can't bring myself to give more lol

Guess the only advice I can give you is keep an eye out for an auction one, hopefully then it wont go as expensive as some of them, I'm the same as you, have a £100 limit, it can get a bit crazy after that.
