model cars

hi
since having a mk1 clipper daughter bought me a model one unfortunately i had to buy the real thing,
if you want one go to
http://www.modelenium.co.uk/models/VW-GOLF-MK1-CABRIO-1980-YELLOW--400055130.aspx

or possibly the club buys them and adds the logo to the case????

On eBay there's a load of Vanguards black tintop GTIs for sale,

£12.99 and modelled on a car that the member Dubboy has/had!

:dontknow: if you're after a cabby then it's obviously not for you, but if you wanna save a few pennies then Click Here

I be slightly (no enormously!!!) Pi**ed off since all the Mk1 Models I see are Series 1 with steelies.  Does anyone know of a Series 2 model with 9 spoke Tarantulas ?????

Still hopeing!!!!

try this one but you may have to paint it

^^^ worth more than the actual car!!

:mrgreen:

i bought a yellow 1.1 vanguards one.
it is a series 1 but has a series 2 dash.
this made me sad. i dont want it anymore.
it is also a p reg(1975), does this mean should be a swallow tail?
pretty sure it is. if so, it has the wrong bonnet too.

these sort of things annoy me. my father was a modelmaker and he used to make paterns for models all the time. he would spend alot of time reaserching to make sure it was correct.

i know, i know. i'm a geek. i dont care! lol.
vanguards suck!
