Re: A9 paint code

I found this colour and trim range for Capri 1983. Black is not metallic, it's solid colour. ;)

Re: A9 paint code

Hi,
not sure if it is metallic, there is just "A = black" in manual. For metallic colours there is "MET" behind it.
Second digit should be year of production.

Yes, Tom. I was pleasantly surprised. Have you got your model yet?


Andrew.
I have my 1/43 version, so I don't order MCG 1/18.
It's already a bit crowded in my display case. :)

Re: New Professionals Model

I was a little worried that the quality and detailing might be poor on Model Car Group's models as they are significantly cheaper than Minichamps or Norev 1/18 scale models. I bought an RS2600, just to see what they were like. I needn't have worried as they look to be fine, and are good value for m...

Poirot is the best. ;)

I don't know Cadfael. Looks like it was here only on DVD from 2010, but it has very good rating.

They are both rated at 13 psi. I just can't see a reason ...

Not quite, these are custom display cases but they show which 1.18 scale Professionals cars are available first.
I see! ;)
This is all MCG 1/18?

I wouldn't have thought that anybody actually believes the blagging of parts and services to be genuine. Why even have it in the show?

Re: New Professionals Model

That's good price for 1/18. I found it here in CZ for similar price. ;)
