Default Which manufacturers do you like?

Which brand manufacturers do you lot like to buy then? I've recently started collecting a few 1:18s, got a few sunstar rally models which I like, they have detail and seem to be good quality, as well as having a nice range of cars. Also have an Autoart RS500 touring car which also seems to be a good model. Looked online and it looks like OTTO are another good brand. Whats your favourite stuff folks? Feel free to stick plenty of pics up!

I buy a car depending on if I like it not what brand it is. Each brand is different, such as Otto & GT Spirit being sealed resin.

Ye I see, I like rally cars and Sunstar seems to have the best range there (think an ascona is next on the list). Seen many nice Porsches too. Not a cheap hobby is it?
