Anyone into diecast 1/18

[purpletimbo]

Off topic I know, but a mate has an UT BMW 1/18, he bought years ago and saw them fetching big bucks on ebay, didn't want to sell it cheap, but he has no knowledge other than he liked it when he bought it.
All in a good cause to fund buying an RC buggy
Just wondered amongst the gurus if we had a die-cast man?
1/18 bmw m3 1993 item no: 723 261.
racing m3 with the build in roll cage
the car has never been out its box
any help would be appreciated.

And I thought RC was pricey

How can you have an off-topic thread in the chitchat forum?


I've never been a collector, the things I have are because I like them and generally are only worth a lot of money at point of purchase, not when time for resale comes along. (why is that, BTW? ). I used to have a client who collected dicast and had several classic cars that were about that size. He passed away a few years ago, the cars probably went to the grand kids. He also had a few R/C's, mostly Nikko garbage for the grandkids, but he bought a sweet King Hauler and box trailer, and had a huge R/C boat. Now, THOSE I'd have liked to have gotten my hands on! LOL
