Unobtrusive, family type sedan - but it went like the proverbial off a shovel!! _ Loved it. Had to sell it when we moved from AFrica to Europe
Now I just look at them in pictures![]()
An amazing car, love the 90's Audi 80 and this just pushes up a notch or six.
When collaboration cars were proper collaborations.

Nice Ken - I dont know of any hobby stores in Europe that carry old models (possibly some on ebay) - and I rely on swop meets as usually here there are a LOT of older models for sale but generally from 80-90's era.

Thanks Anthony.
The grass always looks greener on the other side of the fence. I see all the flea markets going on in Europe, and I drool over them. We have flea markets in Canada too. But they are very small in comparison. I would love to tour Europe for all the slot car meets, etc. But there's no way to afford such a thing.
However. I know of four hobby shops that carry pre-owned kits in, or near the Toronto area. Some are better than others.
I bought the vintage Porsche kit from a store where you would typically walk in, open your wallet, and say "please help yourself". It was not cheap. Some of the other stores sell newer kits for a low price. Each store has their strengths.
