Is there any branding on the base of the 207 S2000? Is it a Norev or Ixo model?

hi all just found site last night and think it great. will get some pics of my models up in the next few days. am also looking for info on 1:18 decals would like to get some made but dont know where to start looking. i have gathered a lot of the orignal art work on discs from the oweners of a lot of the irish rallycars and have one or two in mind i want to get made for my own collection. so come on guys share the info please please please to the new guy.

the 1:18 scale Sunstar Stobart Focus looks nice any one have details on how Sunstar rate in terms of detail? please
Sunstar are nice models for the money, a bit cruder than the competition but as neither Autoart or Minichamps seem in a hurry to release a current shape Focus then it's down to personal choice.
Just taken delivery of the latest Ixo releases, and I'm very pleased with them! :D
RAM229, the Škoda Fabia WRC of Duval from Germany '06 is in a new style of box. The base is angled slightly so that the car will look better on display, and the clear plastic lid has curved edges and seems much stronger. Hopefully fewer cracked lids! The cardboard box/sleeve has also been updated. The inside is now all black and has "ixo" rather than "RALLY" on the insert, I guess so they can use the same for all models. The ixo logo and web address are now in a nice silver instead of yellow.
RAM284, the Fiat Punto S2000 of Duval from Condroz '07 is a limited edition of 2,200 pieces. It's presented in the same style of box as the 2006 WRC Champion Xsara of Loeb/Elena that was released last year. The car itself looks great and is very well detailed, but then it has to be as there are pictures of the real thing all over the box!
Will post some pictures later.
And no, I haven't gone Duval crazy. I also got Grönholm's 2006 Focus test car and his 2007 Monte car (which looks awesome!), plus Janne Tuohino's Xsara from Finland 2006. :p :
Ixo's website has had a makeover aswell! Boxes now look like Autoart with the sloped plinth.
I put together a small gallery of Markko Märtin cars I have (still a few odd ones to add) :)
Has anyone got any pics or heard any news about an Andreas Mikkelsen 06 Focus car from any manufacturer?
Also, as a collector of cars from Norwegian drivers, would people recomend a 1:43 Autoart Impreza Solberg Monte Carlo 2007? Is it worth up to 30 quid?

Some more Nuremburg shots including Ixo's Peugeot S2000!
Nice looking 1/18th scale C4 WRC by Solido too!
Thanks for the tip :up: These are on their way to Papa now :DQuote:

I don't think Ixo have released any yet, but I would expect at least one of those 3 this year!
Might be a few months before the Finland car appears.Quote:

The 1:18 Loeb Xsara from 2004 Rally Australia has Australia spelt "AUSYRALIA" on the rally sticker.
When choosing models, I like to pick the driver and to a specail event.
For exampled, I have 1:43 Atkinson for Rally New Zealand 2005, as that is where he got his first stage win.
Petter - 1:18 Rally Japan, first winner of the event; Seb - 1:18 Corsica 2004 where he won his first championship.
I want a Mikko from Rally Australia 2006 1:18 - his first win and because I was there.
They will be great models as like as the Lancer WRC from Garde, Araújo and Aava.Quote:

If you look harder there's a buyit now from a reputable UK seller at £9.99! I always thought Minichamps did a better Focus but the Skid one is ok.
Models above are Ixo.
Skid models were part of the original Vitesse range that went tits up. The new Vitesse range has driver figures and engine detail and havent really taken off.
Can't find this 9.99 one - help appreciated!
I just got this one from the Trofeu British Rally Legends range - very nice. :)

Does anyone here make decals on demand - if so either reply here or PM me as I'm willing to pay!
Apologies for the delay in responding it appears to have gone. However they often come up at this price and it's worth waiting. Have you looked at the Minichamps version? A bit pricier but a better model IMO?Quote:

A very poor effort by Trofeu on such as nice car!!!
