Hi ! My name is George and I live in Holland. Now being retired and having great memories of my visit to the Goodwood Festival of Speed and the Rolls Royce factory in 2014, I decided to start RR 1/43 models made by the Top Marques brand. But I also like to restore these fine models when damaged or missing parts, it's a great way to spend retirement time. So if you have these models for sale, damaged or not, with original box or not, with baseplate or not, please let me know. Single parts and empty boxes are welcomed too. I am a Paypal member so this can be my way to pay.

George whilst I can't help you with the parts list you mentioned, I would urge you to post some images of the Rollers you have collected as I can say for sure that we have a certain member of the forum who will be delighted to see your collection. Please enjoy your time here.

Hi George, a big welcome to the forum. I am not aware of an official 'TOP MARQUES' model car listing, but as I collect Rolls-Royce models I have my own listing of the products from that company and will post what I can for you right here so you know where to come to find it.
Spare parts are difficult to come by unless you are lucky enough to find damaged models on ebay etc, but I urge you to make contact with this company...J.M. Toys, 32 Aston Road, Waterlooville, Hampshire PO7 7XQ. They have been selling the Top Marques models for some time.
Also make contact with this company...
http://www.marqueart.com/marqueart/default.aspx They are more or less the new owners of the Top Marques brand name and have a lot of the original moulds for the models.
I hope you can enjoy more topics on the forum, but we don't have too many white metal collectors here. The White Silver Cloud you show is very nice, mine is also in White, then I have a Pink Bentley version...
