Nice find Mike and yes, your collection is growing and must be quite large now, you have some very nice models, some of them we like to class as 'Hard To Find'...keep it up Mike, and you will surely get those special models you are looking for!

AN OPEN COMMENT HERE...
Now "Mike" has added the metallic Red Aston Martin to his collection, the temptation here is to suggest the forum has a running register of the members with such 'Hard To Find' models. This would show how many examples exist within the forum and who has got them.
I said 'temptation', because I know not all collectors like revealing what they have in their collections, in particular certain 'Rare' or 'Hard To Find' models, nothing particularly wrong in this, but if a certain known model is wanted for discussion on the forum and one can not be found, at least with the register we can see who has one and who might be willing for it to used for photography and discussion.
It would have to be 'Sticky' and updated when models change ownership, like when "Fixer" passes his nice Javelin to "Motorman" etc.
Further views and ideas on this please.
