Lastly, I had one of these modern Majorette Beetles in the blister pack but I had plans for it

I felt this needed a more period colour (actually red primer with a satin lacquer), and I bought a set of 3D printed BRM wheels. Did a bit of stance tweaking to give it a cal-look vibe. Interior is really well done with proper oval era dash and steering wheel plus a suitcase behind the back seat

That is superb love it! Where did you get the wheels? I've one of those in a set with other classics, but haven't opened it even lol

Majorette were doing VW's with Fuchs style wheels a couple of years a go.

I found this loose caddy, which was part of a 5 pack, at a boot sale today. 10p

I can see a repaint coming on 😎

There's a guy on Facebook who 3D prints them, he actually took over a load of designs from a guy local to me. The original guy supplied the Fuchs on my bay custom

Have the gti in my cupboard, I’m almost sure mine came with a trailer and dingy. I had a red one when I was a kid but sold it to my cousin for 50p I think 😂

Not quite sure why Corgi stuck a chin spoiler on the older casting!

Didn’t know they made without spoiler! I’ve the cream rally version mint and boxed, and another that’s been painted several times lol

Really pleased with this, I've been trying to find the Corgi Juniors bug with a red interior for a while. Same seller had this Matchbox Golf that seems to have been assembled incorrectly, very tidy other than that
