I've had this Maisto piece for years... Not a great piece put a solid placeholder until something better is developed. With the recent AUTOart EB100, do you think AUTOart will do the XJ200?

I was thinking of getting the 1/12 cause its cheap but the detail is awful even on that, so I'll just wait for Autoart to do it. I'm sure they will. It's their MO nowadays.

I think we'll see it as a new announcement in 2015.StratosWRC wrote:I was thinking of getting the 1/12 cause its cheap but the detail is awful even on that, so I'll just wait for Autoart to do it. I'm sure they will. It's their MO nowadays.

Plus Elton John bought one, which makes it even worse. And it does have what is arguably the worst supercar interior of all time.
But that's why I love it. Cause it's a big flawed failure. It is, however, extremely fast and handles well.

I hate modern Lambos, they have no soul.
This car was a big fail, but at least its interesting.
I actually had the Bburago too, Kraftig. It looks bad.
Edit: Uh, we are in Maisto land here, impossible to tell the difference. \diescast snobbery

Funny...I just had this model out to snap some updated pics. I always kind of liked the styling, though the fact that it never got the V12 kind of ruined it for me. I liked the interior, too...the gauges on the door panel always appealed to me. Considering that this model was released over 15 years ago, it still stands up pretty well.
