Wow that is beautiful am i right to assume the queen had a similar type? These models are to dear for me just yet but amazing detail!

She was photgraphed driving one, but she never owned one.

I was at an auction the other day and added some Minis to my collection. As I have quite a few just sitting in boxes hidden away , I thought it was about time I checked to see what I had. After a quick search through the many boxes of models that I have stashed I found I had a few duplicates. These are now listed on a well known international auction site.

A couple of French Eligors




A load of early Vitesse Limited Editions














Some Vanguards










A group of IXO rally cars






and a couple of others

My most recent addition and probably the most fitting reason to stop buying any more .........for now

This is with much help from minimaxie who helped me locate a mini Transformer model (no idea what they're really called) but i got in the last bid and won this for £13.63, it isnt in its original box but the box it comes with is for the Mercedes W124 transformer, but it is the same set or series? which included the Merc, Mini and some Jeep thing? so the box has the instructions for transforming it to a robot. and other advertisement of the mini on the boxes.

The best thing with this mini is that its absolutley mint with not a single play mark and it also comes with the original Gun for the hand. it is going to stay in the box and i transformed it once to get these pics and it was very sketchy trying to figure it out with out wanting to break it The funny thing i noticed is that it is a mk1 typical Red Cooper...........but the Reg F108 WIN ...thats an 89 Mk4 hahaha
