My Cars on Display

My current display. Unfortunately i don't have the space to display all the cars in my collection so i rotate them every few months. I'm going to look at adding another 4 shelves so i can display another 4 cars







Thanks for looking

I'll update the thread as i receive new additions

Beautiful collection there Stu! The Porsche 935 and Moby Dick are so sexy in livery. I get depressed when I see photos of livery cars

Most mouthwatering collection I've ever seen.

Why don't you buy the Klingsbo display cases from IKEA? Although they're twice the price of the one you have, they comfortably fit 15 models.

[Stu935]

thanks for your kind words guys

Are you not a fan of race cars? No worries if that's the case, it would be an uninteresting world if we all liked the same thing

yeah i'm looking to change the display cabinet soon, I've found one from a U.K. retailer that should be able to display between 21 and 28 cars. This will give me enough display space to display all the cars in my collection at the moment and some room to expand.

Whoa, nice collection. Love those Porsche's. Quite a few I would not mind adding.

Great collection and display! I especially love the clear risers; they're almost invisible.
