"I am amazed at the beauty and quality of these models. I find it hard to believe that these 32 year old mint condition models are so inexpensive"

I think a lot of collectors ignored the LLEDO 'Days Gone' models because of their size, they matched original 1st series 'Yesteryears' in overall size but not the 2nd series 'Yesteryears' which came out looking much better in their new 50-55th scales. All the Days Gone models were around 60-66th scale and not until the 'Vangaurds' came out in 43rd scale were they picked up by collectors and then the subject choice was even better with the likes of the Morris Minor Traveller etc.

I do of course collect the Rolls-Royce and Bentley models from the 'DAYS GONE' range and then the later 'CORGI' owned and made versions.
