I collect all rally cars. I would like to know what YOUR favourite/best quality model is because I want to treat myself!
So, what do you reccomend? What is YOUR favourite model?

Hey all,
Just ordered the V. Rossi Ford Focus by Minichamps. I am no expert, so was the Rally that the moto GP champion competed in an actual WRC event???
By the way EWA has on sale at 20% off and Replicarz at 10% off (this weekend only) in the US in case you can't get a great deal at the local shop or eBay.
I'll check back for the details on this model's history...thanks in advance!
Rossi has competed in a Focus WRC on a couple of Monza rallies. Single venue events held within the confines of the Monza race circuit.
Here are my 2 favourites:
Henning's 307 (Ixo)
http://i303.photobucket.com/albums/n...g29/ram213.jpg
Petter's Subaru 07 (AutoArt)
http://i303.photobucket.com/albums/n...6707_67914.jpg
These two coming soon:

Couple,of the latest additions
Rossi Monza Rally Show Focus WRC
http://i198.photobucket.com/albums/a...P1010016-1.jpg
And Ixo's special edition Punto S2000 Duval Condroz 07
http://i198.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/P1010017.jpg
Is Duval's Punto good - because I'm interested but don't know how mmuch it is worth?
and where can we get it?
As you may know I sell/trade model rally cars but am not going to advertise here as that is not allowed!!
All I can say is that the Punto looks spot on as you would expect with Ixo getting full access to the Auotmeca run car of Duval and so would happily recommend it to other collectors. The seating position is accurate and the livery well executed and the presentation box is superb. Ixo are planning to do a Navarra car from last year and also a Portugese version aswell as the original ERG sponsored Abarth car so there will be plenty of liveries to choose from.
Haha, good one, sal!Quote:

Quite jealous. Some very nice cars in the collection and some that are NOW very hard to come by.

I got an email from my wholesaler today telling me about the Aston Martin sets but guess Biante have gotten confused as the other sets including the Solberg, McRae and Burns Impreza triple set are all Prodrive licensed items so they must have thought the Ford one was too!
Great!! Thank you very much!! Maybe it won't be able by May, but it's expected to be done!Quote:

You must have one hell of a collection feresc13!
I see you have some converting to do to the two safari cars.
I agree the Supra does not look right.
Looking at Biante's site this other Ford set caught my eye.

I'm always a bit suspicious about boxed sets as see it often as a way of manufacturers creaming more money out of collectors as appeared to happen with the slot car manufacturers. As these sets will no doubt be sold by the teams on events and given away to corportate guests I can understand the them doing it but it would be nice to see previously unmodelled liveries etc being used.
