    So, I held back for posting until I received all of my orders(for now...):D

    Got myself some more cars that I personally had, the Ford Mondeo Turnier pre-facelift and an Opel Tigra. Missing are still Audi 80 B3, BMW e39 and Mazda 626 GE(last one appearently has not been ever manufactured:()

    Then I got an old Russian tractor, the glorious T-40 AM. Chose this one because we have that same tractor in our family(although without "A"- without all-wheel drive).

    And also I managed to get the pre-facelift normal Renult 19 that I wanted(we also had that in our family-We have had 56 cars in our family).

    Also got a Ford Scorpio and in my opinion very interesting Volvo 480 Convertible.

    I`m afraid I am still going to buy a few more, there needs to be some kind of a support group for scale model collectors...

    It's a very nice detailed model! And probably the more expensive of them... Was a pain to find, I had to import it from Germany.

    The only thing that bug me is the interior. The seat use a design who wasn't available on the Boston special serie... Oh well.

    Found myself the long searched e39. It's very close to my actual car even: It's pre facelift, saloon, non M5 and has an inline 6 petrol engine. Only the color is off:D . And since it's made by germans the panel gaps on the openable parts are amazingly accurate.

    Also got a Mosckwich 412 in red just like my grandfathers and a VAZ 2106 and a Mosckwich 2140 in yellow just like my dad used to have.

    The ZAZ I just personally like.

    The e39 was made by Schabak way back when the e39 just came out I belive :D

    Found it on ebay.
    Currently sold by meyou_my and ehautolink. Both seem to be located in Malaysia.

    I bought mine from ehautolink. Scale is 1/43.

    Got the model from Malaysia to Estonia in 3 days, just amazing. Often it takes two weeks to get mail from within my country.
