Road Cars

The ultimate dream machine or just your old mans old jalopy in the drive?

Everyone's got their idea of the perfect car....These are some of the best out there. The car below , by the way is a gents concept version of the venerable Nissan Skyline. Imagine getting a speeding ticket in that?

Porsche Carrera GT

This is Tamiya's latest offering - the Carrera GT.

This particular example is painted in actual Porsche "Arctic Silver" just to add a bit of authenticity

Very nice and simple kit to make, and I recommend anyone to make this beautiful car.

 

Enzo Ferrari....in red. (The Yellow version is almost complete)

Veilside Skyline

Aoshima's Veilside Skyline. Automotive paint & polish. 


Caterham (1/12th Scale Master Coachworks)

This is Tamiya's 1/12th scale Caterham. Built in 2003 over a period of 3 months. If you ever want to do a 1/12th scale "master coachworks" model from Tamiya... do this. It was a joy to build, and looks cool too in the cabinet or on the mantlepiece. The model itself features real metal parts, fully detailed and wired Ford Cosworth engine ( check out the K&N air filters) and all the ususal high detail you'd expect.

 

Caterham Super Seven JPE

Here is the lastest model of the "production line"

Tamiya's Master coachwork Caterham, in a very fetching yellow.

Skyline R-34 Nismo(Z-Tune)

This is the new Aoshima Skyline R-34 version, The S-tune, lthough you can apply decals for a Z-tune as well, which I have done here.

This was a very simple kerbside kit to make and not bad at all once it was finished, although looking at this, it looks like all the panels dont fit ( they do really, it's just dodgy Japanese Cars!) .

Paint scheme is Tamiya TS-17 Gloss Aluminium, with a single coat of clear, followed by some nifty graphics

Porsche GT3

Tamiya's Porsche Carreta GT3

This particular model is painted in Deep Mica Blue.
