Thanks johnboy for the link,.

Great to see them with the box included , saldy most of the cars of the shoebox are without
the boxes. Lets see online if there are still some boxes for those budgie,s.

Did you get the budgie with some gas at a gasstation or did people really buy them exclusive.?

The shoebox made me interested whats the mysterie behind this small cars .

ON ebay (notice by nick,s site) i saw some too , and some cars with boxes are pretty priced.

I will put the box now aside and check this forum more often to learn about lesney, chat and comments.

i still havent dicide what i will do with the car,s. Maybe start a collection like ghosthunter

Ok guys let me now check some your post.

hello Tjlglass and Ghosthunter,

Thank you for the responces, guys. I was amazed too when i find them too. I expected trains(marklin).
Ok Budgie brand for the other two,.. that explains why i could not find them in the Lesney list.
My grandfather has some friends in the UK for many years, maybe they
give him the cars by a present, the ambulance and to add to his train railway upset.

thanks for the comments. I am new here but appreciate the comments and the views.

great to meet you all.

Frenk,

The Budgies were sold in the HEMA in the Netherlands and even advertised in a National Newspaper. price was 25 cent! In Box!
