Nice to find with dot dash wheels. My understanding is that this was a multipack issued model and some surplus stock was distributed in Japan. The initial japan issues had the slightly larger 10 x 4mm 5 spoke wheels.

What about the golden Rolls Royce n. 24 with dd wheels? Is it a multipack issue too?
It is also on my wishlist.

Yes, the Rolls-Royce with 'DD' wheels was available in the MP-1 set shown below.

Oh yes, thanks Ghosty.
Very nice MP, I don't have a MP yet, because I don't know which cars must be in it.
I think some seller take the rare models out of the pack and fill it with standard models.
(rare: blue wrecker, white Saab, white Piston Popper, am I wrong?)

I think you need to find a way of resizing your photos! It’s a nuisance that the site doesn’t do it automatically, but it doesn’t so we all have to live with it. If you’re using an iPad the options are:
- email it to yourself choosing one of the smaller sizes - you’ll have to do a bit of trial and error but if you get a jpg of 200 to 400 kilobytes you won’t be too far off (probably)
- use one of the many photo resizing apps. You want to end up with a width of about 640 pixels. There are free apps that do this.
If you’re on a PC I think people use Paint. On a Mac, export from Photos at the right size and then upload the file.
It’s a pain but you’ll get far more people looking and commenting so it’s probably worth it! I take my pictures on a digital SLR and shrink them on a Mac.
