I got into Scalextric at a very early age - 23!!!
I was lucky to have a 20ft lounge and had a 4 lane set up when time allowed. It then got reduced to a 2 lane set up but with a 'double decker' lane (one on top of the other) which worked really well. Included in the layout was the 'high hump', 'paddock' (with working switches), 'Goodwood Chicane' (with bales and tyres), cross roads and a good straight section.
I do have some classic track that I now longer need due to me having moved house, only problem is that I live in Preston.
Is the shop still operating in Marlow.

Yellow & blue Capri
Black Porsche 911
Red F40
F1 Benneton
White & blue Monile Mk3 Escort
Brown Mk1 Escort with WORKING headlights
2 sets of Minis
Black M3 BMW
Rover SDi police car
Ford Cosworth police car
Blue & red Racing Rig
and possibly numerous others that I cant recall cause they've been in a box for over 10 years!!!!
