Yes, they're nice to have. Looks like the Jag has red hubs?
I looked at those and discounted them as being painted as there seems to be something going on with the body. I am sure Stephan with reveal the truth... :D

Hi,
the Greyhound looks quite good and yes the Jaguar has red hubs.
There where some labels on it after removing them the model looks a bit better.

Nice Stephan, the Jag isn't easy to find. It looks better already, you just need a driver now :)

Hi,
now that I found a better Greyhound with clear glazing I could give away this one.
If somebody wants it please let me know.
Steering wheel is loose.

Congratulations on the red hub Jag and the clear glazed Greyhound. We rarely see them here in the US. I've never seen either in the hand.
Is the Nestle van the lighter red instead of the maroon?
The thin wheel SuperFast Lincoln is also nice.
All in all, it looks like you had a good day at the flea market.
Enjoy!
Kurt

Hi Kurt,

the Nestle van is the lighter red but it is missing the sidedoor and the baseplate with the wheels.
And yes I always enjoy the fleamarket in Stuttgart.

You have a PM.

I really like the Schuco Capri - can't recall ever having seen that one before. The Jag was a great find and cleaned up very nicely.

Cheers,
Gavin

Hi Stephan, I like the Greyhound coach with clear window's, not really one for hunting down rarer variations mainly because of price, but will will be on the look out for a cheap one myself.

Hi Gavin,

there where a few great models done by Schuco in 1:66 scale which are today quit looked after and in good condition also expensive.
Please have a look here. http://www.moon-s.de/schuco/thumbnails.html
I pic them up when I get a cheap one.

@ Lee thanks for your reply too.

The Greyhound bus goes to the US tomorow.
