Thank you Reg, that is a great way to display the models in your pictures and I know it must have taken a while for you to do that, but it was definitely worth it.

Thanks there's lots more variations of colours interiors and wheels
Considering the small amount of castings compared to Lesney the combinations available is amazing

Jumping on the bandwagon a bit here, but I''ll be bringing some Impy's I've just acquired to the Shepton Toyfair this Sunday coming (7th June). I have 9 different variations of the Zodiac Estate (3 boxed), a boxed VW Microbus, a Peugeot 404 with skis, a Transit breakdown truck, plus 2 unboxed variations of the Zodiac police car and 3 carded commercials. The unboxed models are all v.good to excellent.

I really like the Lone Star models, they were great with the many opening features. And I have now remembered that I had a few as a child (all with fast wheels). I had the Jaguar Mk X in turquoise, the Corsair in blue, a dark red Volvo P1800 and a lilac Ford Taunus with roof rack.
Is there a recommended website, maybe I remember a few more? :)
