Nice pair of Buses and what an uncanny Matchbox-ish design on those boxes!

This is a Matchbox Lamborghini Marzal and a very similar Zylmex version. Yatming also made a version that I don't have but from memory it was truer to the real car because it had a clear window style roof.

Just found a huge plastic K16 Dodge Truck & twin Tippers copy made by Blue Box in a charity shop. But annoyingly, I can't get any pic to upload correctly. I'll keep trying though.
Its not in great condition, in fact its completely knackered, but had to buy it just to save it if only to pass it on to someone else.
