• NO ORDER # - 1986 Rothmans Circuit of Ireland Rally - Llewellin / Short - 'Austin Rover Motorsport' : Limited to 30 only!

Actually No 22 of 30. I can only build them when I get hold of a Starter resin kit. The first ones of these I made back in the mid 1990s. The decals are not up to modern standards and each model will be built as it would have been made back then.

Note the last one I saw of these selling on Ebay went for £120, this one will be £100 inc p&p to any location.

PM me if you are interested?

Cheers
Chris

No problems at all mate - many thanks for posting it up. If you or anyone else finds anything missing or incorrect, then just let me know and I'll edit the master list.

I guess I must have got mine from you in the mid/late 1990s as well Chris, and I agree with you totally about what was about then - this was the era before all the diecast models appeared, so all there was available was either resin or white metal kits!

For anyone interested in the model that Chris mentions, here is a photo of what mine looks like...

thats a very impressive list dave!

I need 16 from the list be it decals or built models, but I only have 2 built non Skid/Ixo based cars.. the 2 Prototype cars.

does that included the 2 i might have? a certain biggerstaff sorry couldnt resist mate.

It is an impressive list Paul!

I haven't been through it and counted how many I have / how many I have missing, but I do know something...

...I know for a fact that I don't have the two Biggerstaff models that you have!

hehehehe....sorry mate.

Not a problem Paul - my bank balance would prevent me owning them anyway, even if I could find any for sale!

This model now sold.

I still have decals left to do 8 more, but dont have any spare Starter kits at the moment!!

So the next one might take some time...

Cheers
Chris

I'm pleased you sold that one so quickly Chris - must be the photo I uploaded!

Dave

I was going to put up a photo when I got home but you beat me to it!! But appreciate your efforts thank you.

I think I started these around 1994ish when as you say this is all we had to work. There is so much good stuff around now is difficult to know where to look next!

Just need a few more Starter kits now....

Cheers
Chris

No problems at all Chris - happy to help.

I agree totally with your comment "There is so much good stuff around now is difficult to know where to look next!" - but what gets me even more is how many new 6R4 models have been released since early last year! By my reckoning, that rate is more than likely going to continue through 2012, and into next year as well!

As I mentioned in my email Chris, I do have some Starter models here. I just need to see how many there are, and decide whether I no longer require them or not. Leave it with me, and I'll try and get back to you later this evening.

Dave, I have just realised I've missed one!...

Maybe

Don't worry, you're in good company! Don't see 6R4 goggle eyes as being a bad thing! Far from it!! Steve

Glad it's all sorted now anyway - just need a few of those blanks filling in from Andy now.

Desperately out of date now! I'll try and get an update done shortly therefore.

Partly my fault aswell

No problems Dave.

I'm liaising with Andy at the moment regarding his latest additions, and as soon as I know everything I will send you the updated list so that you can edit the first post.
