Hey all, i'm trying to find a model of the Bluebird land speed record car in either its 1931, 1932 or 1933 configurations. I was wondering if anyone knew of one? I've found two on the internet, one sells for about £140 and the other, a tinplate models, goes for £60. I'm trying to find one anywhere 1:43 scale downwards, and ideally under £50

I have one that came froma a Kellogs offer in the early 1990. I think it is a Lledo model. Probably 1/60 scale or so.

I collected all of those too. Probably the best quality item from a cereal offer ever. smile

I received the 1930s Bluebird, Spirit Of America Sonic 1, The Railton Special and Thrust 2. All lovely little models.

Yep, that was the full set along with a card timeline of all the records.

My Brother also bought the Thrust SSC model from Lleddo which they produced initially as a special edition. nerd
