Thank you very much for this nice video. But I notice that your model doesn't have the two chrome strips on each side of the bonnet and end below the headlights! You can see the hollows, but where are the strips?
Incredible detail. Surprising on a premium diecast to have several loose or falling off parts. I have 9 Autoart diecasts. A James Bond Aston Martin DB5 w/weapons, Blue 57` & Red 59` experimental Corvettes, Mako Shark, Bullitt Mustang, White Porsche GT3, Black Lamborghini Murcielago special edition, Silver Panoz Roadster, Red Ferarri Manarello I got great deals on every car. The most expensive was JB DB5 which was $65 US in 2002. The owner of the diecast shop obviously didn't know what he had. The rest were under $60 on eBay. Some as low as $30. These Jags and the Porsche 928 are up there in price. Still want that Jaguar XJ-13. Almost had one for $120, but was snipped at the last second. Dam!!!
Hi, l have the same model and don't recall receiving the books or magnifying glass!. The rear brakes have already been mentioned but the wheels are also incorrect. The wheels are actually race wheels. The standard wheels were narrower and painted silver or chromed option. However it is still a very nice facsimile.
That is unfortunate, you definitely should have got them! Thank you for the info, it is interesting to see how many parts they decided to interchange with other variants!
I cant understand why Autoart went to all the trouble to make this detailed modern and yet give a fundamental detail totally wrong. On this model you can see the rear disk brakes through the wires, this is wrong as the e types disks are inboard!! and yon can not see them. I am not sure how they missed this.
