Hi carcollector.

Do have a look here...http://www.chezbois.com/non_corgi/match ... y_home.htm

It is quite a good reference site for the range with many of the models illustrated.

that's a nice website Kevin.
I also used to collect these and had a very big collection on these with code-2 and code-3 models swell.
Most were sold in 1996 with the best part going to 1 collector in the UK and 1 in Germany.
I think the European cars were very good but lost interest in this series when they started with USA cars
Quite late the live of this range Mattel introduced more European cars but most of them were old Vitesse tooling.
This series is now difficult to find, especially the red Lotus.
