Hi Guys, this car is from the altaya Seat Sport Collection. Its a partwork that has already included the BTCC Seat Leon TDI of Jason Plato & the WTCC Seat Leon of Jordi Gene & Rickard Rydell's WTCC Toledo & Jordi Gene's Toledo from the ETCC. In the future editions of the Spanish magazine, they include Yvan Muller's TDI Seat Leon. They are really good quality models made from IXO.

They don't look very good quality, the number plate on the back in wonky

Looks fine to me

Didn't win it. Went for £56, someone outbid me in the last few seconds. Can only hope there's lots more of these to come (like the Plato one). I have my doubts though

I wonder if anybody can help me with a project I've got on the go. Does anybody have any pictures of Andy Rouse's 1983 Alfa Romeo GTV6 that he raced in the BTCC. I would really appreciate any help. Cheers

I thought I'd update my collection as I haven't done it for a while, managed to finally get the last 2 ONYX models I needed and also got the new Spark 1960s Mini of Hill. I have also completed a couple of kits and conversions in the last few months.

I have added

1960 Austin Mini of Graham Hill (Spark)

1963 Winning Ford Galaxie of Sears (not the best kit I've made)

I've also noticed that Corgi/Vanguard are going to release the 1977 VW Golf of Richard Lloyd. I'm just hoping that IXO will release the Jones Leon.

PDS, How are the decals going for the 2010 Gio Vectra?

Some exciting news. The AutoArt Rydell Volvo BTCC models will finally be released in September/October. They have also added two additional versions to those already announced.

89494 #15 RICKARD RYDELL VOLVO 850 ESTATE BTCC 1994 DUE SEPT/OCT '10
89594 #15 RICKARD RYDELL VOLVO 850 BTCC 1995 DUE SEPT/OCT '10
89595 #9 TIM HARVEY VOLVO 850 BTCC 1995 DUE SEPT/OCT '10
89596 PRESENTATION VERSION VOLVO 850 BTCC 1995 DUE SEPT/OCT '10

I'm covered on the two Rydell versions (got them on pre-order at 69.99 each) but worried about how much the Harvey one will set me back (as current Autoart RRP for them is £109.99 and I have heard rumours it will be £149.99 when they are actually released.)

The model is release 38 in the Altaya Seat series already mentioned. Watch Ebay in Novemberish time and you should be looking at £19 or so...

Yeah PDS said on the other forum that it should be available in a couple of weeks.

What ever time it takes, they will appear a lot cheaper.
