How many model cars do you have and what are they?

[Torque07]

Lamborghini Countach (x4) (Red, Red, Blue, Black)

Lamborghini Murcielago (x2)(Silver, Blue)
Lamborghini Murcielago roadster (Black)
Lamborghini Diablo (Yellow)
Ferrari 208 GTB (Red)
Ferrari Enzo (Red)
Ferrari 360 (Red)
Ferrari F40 (x3)(Red, Red, Silver)
Ferrari 550 Maranello (Silver)
Ferrari F50 (Red)
Jaguar XKR (Green)
Jaguar XJ220 (Silver)
Jaguar E-Type (Green)

TVR Sagaris (Red)
TVR Tuscan Mk1 (Silver)
Pagani Zonda C12 S (Silver)
Aston Martin Vanquish (Silver)

I have a Speedfreak MK1 Golf GTi to add to my list above....

[Strangely Brown]

I have a complete 1/43rd Senna Collection, including the Rothmans livery FW16, plus the FW15 and 6R4 that are not officially part of it. The four newest models that have been recently announced are already on order.

No pictures I'm afraid as they are all asleep in their boxes in the cupboard. As soon as I can find a cabinet that I like, and more importantly that she likes, they will be out on display.

[matrs]

Over 500 slot cars, been collecting since I was 5.

Thanks I will have to have a look around for one and see if you can still get them. I would love to add a GT40 to my collection (a blue and orange one ).
