924 Turbo model car 1:24 Burago

[peanut]

tatty but complete diecast model car at 1:24 on ebay at the moment.
Rare model I should have thought and 1:24 is such a nice scale . Might be worth restoring

Stepson (39 going on 12) went overdrawn at bank last week so Wifey sent £150 cash recorded delivery which has gone missing in post (no compensation) [] Wifey away for a few days so had to send another wad of cash special delivery this afternoon.

Do you remember that advert with the kid walking through the park with money pouring from his trousers ? well thats our Stepson

That one looks really nice.

Sholti models (don't think he has a website, but he's at most events) had a couple of tatty ones of these last time I looked, was nearly tempted but in my opinion they're not a nice enough model to have unless in really nice condition.

Was having a browse around the stands at teh Classic Car show last weekend and was asked by one stallholder what I was looking for, when I told him 944, he then produced a little one in a blister pack in shiny silver for £1 (which I bought) and then proceeded to show me a special Corgi AA gift pack which contained an AA van, a Patrolman and a Red 944 Turbo...my TVR-owning mate thought this was highly amusing! (And probably a vision of things to come...)

944 models are quite rare, you see plenty Turbo's but hardly any 2.7's [] however I did find one recently, 1:43 scale Solido HI-FI 43 No 1502. Because it had the wrong wheels I got a 928GT to donate the Design 90 alloys [] it also needs some painting to make it look more like the real thing.


I am breaking the 928 for spares if anybody wants any bits, bare in mind it's 1:43 []

I started a thread a while ago with some of the models I've found, it's here if anyone's interested

I could use the rear view mirror and the DME []



Burago made some nice 1:24 scale Porsche here is a 928S4 I found on ebay a few years ago . i also have a couple of 944 Lux and 944S2 in the same scale which I've not seen anywhere for a while.

I'll have to post a picture of my extremely tasteful silver one on that thread, I've thrown the box away will that devalue it?[]

Please post away!
Not sure yours will do that well at the club model concours without its box, but us 944 owners rarely worry about such things []
