Spotted these two little gems on ebay, thought they should be shared. Anyone else know of any?

I'd love one of the Neo one's, just always struggle to justify the £40 or whatever it works out to be.

I have 2 Corgi ones, 3 or 4 of the Stahl?(or am I making that up?) dealer models and a 1:40ish resin and lost wax kit that I can't bring myself to build without working out if there is a way to make moulds from it.

Have one of the R-Sport livered artics around somewhere too.

Yeah i was guessing if the volvos 1:43 were made of resin, but they're not. Kinda expensive.. But it's very very rare to grab one of those.
I'd like to have the GLT, awesome.

I got bought a Neo 360 GLT a couple of years ago, really love the model and it's very well detailed! As good as you'd get in 1:43'd anyway

Go on then, I'll raise Steve in the geek front. I have another few bits on the island, will try to get some photos sent over... This is (I think) all thats in Soton atm. Apologies for shonky photos, it's dark and my flash is buried somewhere.

First off, couple of dealer models with a hot wheels
Image
Gold GLT (red GLT in island stock)
Image
White GLEi Saloon
Image
Hotwheels, white with stickers (also have black with factory applied livery in the island stock)
Image
Image

Those are moderately rare (hotwheels I see a lot less than dealer models appearing, but seen a few over the last while). From memory, Adam, 340GLT, has a couple of hotwheels in that size, as well as a hotwheels the size of the dealer models in his stash.

Last up, is the thing I'm somewhat paranoid about, never seen another (apart from when I just searched, see this post on V3C http://forum.volvo300club.nl/showpost.p ... stcount=68 , the right hand 2 models are the same...) A Hostaro 1/43 kit.

Photoetched wipers, headlamp jewels

If you look closely, you can see the correct pattern of wheels, steering wheel and separate vacuum formed windows (made this one clickable)
Image
Mk3 hatch shell
Image
Can just see the interior

Close up of interior

Distructions (clicky big)

List of other models (note 3dr and 360 too (clicky big)

Wow, great stuff! I've only got a Neo model (Dutch police car) and one of those Stahlberg "Made in Finland" jobbies.

They tend to go for a bit too much money for my liking ...

Cheers
