I saw a Montreal over in another part of the circuit when I went to the Cadwell Park race circuit a couple of weeks ago. Too far away for a photo but I do like them. A rare sight even when they were new.

All very nice, but those Giulias look great! An unusual choice for Minichamps to do, but they did do a nice job on them. Hoping for a Maxichamps reissue of the Sud ti, lovely model. Oh, and the Sud Sprint which I also need. I very much need an early Sud Sprint as well Tom. I have a later face-lifted version but not the pure earlier car. Dino and the HPI Stratos for me Can't say I blame you Paul. Nothing not to like here. And even one we share Jeff I saw a Montreal over in another part of the circuit when I went to the Cadwell Park race circuit a couple of weeks ago. Too far away for a photo but I do like them. A rare sight even when they were new. Luckily there are a couple that come out for AutoItalia each year over this way Paul. They still draw me in every time, the design is spot on for me.

Giulietta goes on my list. Nice model and likely affordable. You have a nice selection of GTVs!

A silver GTV would fit in quite nicely here.

There is still one more road going GTV Tom - one that you may remember Any of the GTV’s or the 512BB. Class as always Paul Love the GTVs! I’ve always wanted one in my collection! They are probably my favourite "modern" Alfa Julio. I just wish I had more racing versions! A silver GTV would fit in quite nicely here. As one would in my 1:1 garage Jeff, but that is unlikely to ever happen.

Classy batch with lots of familiar models. I like the Sud Sprint.

...”Please, please tell me now!”... What GTV 1:43 model would you recommend?

GTV6 looks great. I know the 412 is frowned upon but I have always liked it.

Classy batch with lots of familiar models. I like the Sud Sprint. Thanks Tom. As I noted above, I need a good version of the earlier pre-face-lift Sprint. ...”Please, please tell me now!”... What GTV 1:43 model would you recommend? Good question Julio. The silver and red Sparks are recent releases and can still be found. They are both very good. The GTV can be a hard car to get right in 1:43 with some manufacturers falling down when it gets to the grille/lights. The older red Minichamps is a cracker, but hard to come by and usually expensive. The "Bond" Minichamps is a good compromise and worth chasing down. The model is very good and can be found for reasonable prices at times. Mine was a gift from Tom so has the best VFM of all the ones I have GTV6 looks great. I know the 412 is frowned upon but I have always liked it. I'm with you there Jeff. The 400 and 412 were nicely designed cars to my eyes. Yeah, while the F40 grabs the headlines, the 288 GTO is the car to have - there are a lot less of them for a start. A pimped-up 328, what's not to like.
