BLOODY HELL!
You have got everything there, do you know how much 'WESTERN MODELS' and 'BROOKLIN MODELS' go for, absolutely stunning collection and thank's for Rolls-Royce picture, the White car with advertising all over it is based on an actual endurance race car when a Rolls-Royce Corniche had Toyota Land Cruiser running gear and Chevy V8 engine inplanted into it to make the famous Paris-Dakar 'Jules' racing Rolls-Royce.
Yours looks like the original model made by 'MINI RACING' from France during 1982 and is very unusual and quite hard to find. 'NOREV' released a diecast version a several Years ago.

I checked the 4x4 Roller and as I suspected Ghosty, your right.
It is a Mini Racing 0061.
home built by the previous owner.
I found another Rolls that looks like a land speed car similar to Blubird but that was late last night so will locate it and show you that one too.
