Nice buy at a nice price

I've been after the fluorescent orange traveller for years, I missed this one................damn!

I've got two now, well when that one arrives. I've also got an unboxed playworn flourescent green one aswell.

I'll post pictures of those and a couple of other Ebay wins from this weekend when they've all arrived.

I always buy some other stuff to resell to help pay for my addiction, habit, collecting. I also got 9 other models (2 Fiats, 3 Fords 2 Ferraris, a Lancia and a BMW M5) at the toy fair which have gone on ebay to pay for the Minis. I've sold one of the Fords already.

Well I've received all my latest Ebay finds, and no the yellow Mini was not a Colmans one.



It's a repainted Wickwework Mini that should be black with a red roof and wicker sides, it's tyres are also oversized. The blue one isn't too bad.





The two Countrymans aren't to bad. The white one has had the doors, roof and bonnet painted, and there is some glue residue on the sides of the orange one.





The lot was still worth it though as it was cheap.

Next I got a couple more Pilens, one boxed and one not. Oddly they both have SEAT wheels. Has anyone else got or seen SEAT whells fitted on Pilens before?







And finally I picked up a couple of Corgi Monte Carlo Minis





As the decals were pretty much gone I also ordered some replacements to make them look better on the shelf. I've put the new ones directly over the old one so that they can be removed if needs be.





Off to an auction tommorrow so I might come home with more!
