An MG1100 was my first Matchbox, chosen because it was the closest thing my parents could find to my father’s Austin A40. I think the base often breaks here. I’ve got one too somewhere.

The other is a Charbens Old Crock 1907 Ford. I think it’s strange how neglected these are - even less popular than Benbros!
