That's a fabulous list of suggestions Hub! I shall do what I can to make sure it is seen.

In terms of what sells... a very obscure (but very tasty) Escort Mk1 makes this list of Top 10 best-selling pre-orders that Jadlam emailed out to customers 24 hours after the catalogue was released...

   

The Top 5 are certainly no surprise!

I’ve also pulled together the technical info on all the new 1:32 tooling...

• Batmobile – slim-can FF motor, inline. Digital Plug Ready (DPR).
  
• Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 – short-can motor, sidewinder, full interior. DPR.
  
• Corvette C8R – short-can motor, inline, tray interior. DPR.
  
• Formula E Spark Gen2 – slim-can FF motor, inline. DPR with C8516 F1 plug.
  
• Jaguar XJS – short-can motor, inline, tray interior. DPR.
  
• KITT – short-can motor, sidewinder. DPR.
  
• Lotus 97T Renault – slim-can FF motor, inline. Not DPR.
  
• Lotus 99T Honda – slim-can FF motor, inline. Not DPR.
  
• Lotus Esprit S1 / Lotus Esprit S2 – short-can motor, sidewinder. DPR.
  
• Mercedes AMG GT3 Evo – short-can motor, inline, tray interior. DPR.
  
• Pagani Huayra BC Roadster – short-can motor, inline, super-resistant. DPR.
  
• Plymouth Barracuda / Chrysler Hemicuda – short-can motor, sidewinder. DPR.

The slim-can motor is the FF-050 motor - standard in all single-seaters and other cars where room is tight.
The short-can motor is the Mabuchi FC130 S-can - standard in most new cars.

In attempt to encourage standardised racing classes - and similar levels of interior detail for collectors too - sidewinder motors (and full interiors) are kept in the 60s-70s Trans-Am / Muscle car range. Inline motors (and tray interiors) are standard in the modern GT and touring. Otherwise, it's more about what fits - the narrower Capri and XJS are, by necessity, in-line.
