A friend got me a die-cast 931 model a few years ago. They are usually on ebay, made in spain I think.

try this joint. online only as far as i can tell.

http://www.japanmodelrailways.com/modellshopenglish/start.htm

they stock the




i ordered it, and although its not a great kit (no where near trumpeter or tamiya quality), i reckon its worthwhile. plenty of scope for customisation. i'm planning on making it into a NA if i ever get finished on my mil-mi24 HIND. i may be able to take some photos inside the kit box if your interested in seeing what parts are in it.

cheers

This outfit is kind of interesting, for the die-cast type:

very highly detailed models, but their website needs a lot of help.

I've got the minichamps 1/18th die-cast, it's fantastically detailled, even down to the exhaust sections being accurate when you flip it over. Also got a couple of smaller die-casts by I think Schuco or someone like that and the Burago 1982 Turbo "Le Mans". Haven't seen any plastic model kits in the UK tho.

If anyone finds a 1:32 plastic model, post where here. I would like to make a 924 slotcar.

You guys know I sell die cast and toys.

The best place on line or by mail is EWA in Parsippany NJ. I seem to have forgotten who makes the 1/18th scale 924.

Why bother with ebay. The same car above is 25 From EWA. they have tons of Porsches in all types. They have the 1/18th 924 too along with all your favorites.
