Bristol Beaufighter 1980 1:43, jupiter red metallic ref. AV012-02

Based on the Bristol 412 of 1975 - designed by Zagato in Italy - this was a major update of the 412 called "Beaufighter". This car is equipped with a 5.9 liter V8 engine made by Chrysler USA, charged by a Rotomaster turbocharger. With this mighty unit the car was extremly powerful and fast. The Beaufighter is easily recognizable by the "rectangular" dashboard and single exhaust pipe. Around 30 cars of this type were built and sold which is a guarantee for exclusiveness, for which Bristol is well known. This model will be handbuilt on order only. You can choose some minor options and 5 types of wheels. Customers can place an order through the order form, or email us with desired specification. Normally we produce 100 off of our models, but we will produce only 60 off of the Beaufighter. So be quick, or be......out of production.

Honda Civic 4-door saloon 1989 1:43, solid red or maroon metallic, ref. AV016-02

In 1987 Honda introduced the 4th generation of the Civic. This was an enormous leap in quality and performance for the Civic. With this car Honda finally penetrated the market for premium cars. In general the 4th gen Civic was praised by the international motoring press for high build quality, performance, roadholding, double-wishbone suspension and their advanced 16-valve engines which were considered "jewels" in engine technology. The 1989 version was a mild facelift with a slightly different frontbumper and different rearlights and a red bar in between the rearlights. Chassiscodes for the 1989 4-door saloon were ED3 ( ( 1.5 liter fuel-injection engine ), ED4 ( 1.6 liter SOHC fuel-injection engine ) and ED5 ( which was the same as ED4 but with all-wheel drive ) for the LHD versions. RHD versions for Japan ( Australia, New Zealand, RHD Asia, maybe UK ) had chassiscodes EF3, EF4 and EF5 respectively. There were some slight differences in details regarding lighting depending upon country of admission. So we will build these Civic models on order only, custom built. And of course you can choose LHD or RHD versions. Until now no model of this Civic was ever available in 1:43. Customers can place an order through the order form, or email us with desired specification.

FIAT 127 Coriasco Familiare 1972 1:43, turchese farfalla, ref. RM054

Carrozzeria Coriasco in Torino offered a 127 1st series stationwagon ( familiare ) version from modelyear 1972 on because FIAT did not offer this version. In contrast to the standard 127 the van was much more practical with a generous luggage space and foldable rearseat. It is not known how many cars were produced by Coriasco on the 127 chassis, but probably a few hundred. Also 2nd and 3rd series. We will supply the van ( furgoncino ) version in a limited edition of 10 - 25 off later.

FIAT 127 4-door Lucciola Lombardi 1972 1:43, blue, ref. RM053

When introduced in 1971 FIAT did not offer a 4-door version of the 127 and in their great tradition Carrozzeria Lombardi in Vercelli Italy offered from 1972 on their own version of a 4-door 127, called Lucciola ( like their 600 and 850 4-door versions ). As usual they offered a car with considerably more headroom above the rearseats and a much more generous glasshouse than the standard 127. Styling of Lombardi's 127 was very elegant and quite exclusive, though with an elevated price. Only the front-end of the car is identical to the standard 127 for the rest all the bodywork is completely different from the standard 127. To our knowledge no more than 50 cars have been built and sold by Lombardi. The introduction of the SEAT 4-door version in 1973 ( our AV015 ) must have hampered sales of the Lucciola version a lot.

FIAT /SEAT 127 4-door 1973 1:43, red or white, ref. AV015

In Spain particularly 4-door cars ( eventually with a trunk ) were always very popular. Fiat in Italy did not provide a 4-door version of the 127. So the SEAT factory in Barcelona developed their own 4-door version of the 127 in 1972 and it was available from modelyear 1973 on. In certain markets ( like Italy ) the car was marketed as a Fiat. But in fact all these 4-door 127's were made in Barcelona.

DAF 30 Coupe Prototype 1962 1:43, ref. RM051

In 1962 the DAF factory in Eindhoven produced a very elegant proposition for a small DAF Coupe based on the type "30" chassis. It can be considered a one-off prototype which never went into production. Apparantly the design was done completely "in house" without cooperation of a coach builder. Rumour has it that the car was completely street-legal and was in use by the managing board of the DAF factory. A few years after production the car has disappeared from view and nobody knows where the car is now or if it still exists. Though there are still a handful of pictures showing the car in drivable condition. Anyway, the car has been revived by us, though in a 43 times smaller size.
