I see that they are resin models so the doors, bonnet and boot will not open. Great model though.

The silver car number plate belongs to a Rover 3500 SD1 and the blue car is from a Triumph Dolomite 1500

My blue 7 arrived today.
Great model just like the pictures on the site. Can't open doors, as expected.
Panel gaps are perfect :lol:

Regarding the headlights,one of them should be up and one down.
As mentioned before,panels gaps too small and too neat.
Realistic my arse. :lol:

I s'pose that comparison would depend on the panel gap of your arse! :shock: ..........not that I would care to use it as a comparator :lol:
No I think I'll take your word for it! :lol:
