Nice! One thing I know is Biante is top notch when it comes to execution. The CC isn't too shabby either!

Re: Australian Racing - 1971 & 1986 Bathurst Winners
I am so glad that I have put a personal limit on these to no older than 2000.
Thanks for the great pictures!

AutoArt makes most models for Biante. But this model is actually Biante's own creation.[KRAFTIG] wrote:Nice! One thing I know is Biante is top notch when it comes to execution. The CC isn't too shabby either!
It is top notch in terms of details.
Carlectables not shabby at all! Look at those hinges or undercarriage at least. The Falcon is stuffed with details.
Cause quit buying supercars and get yourself at least one Aussie racer!StratosWRC wrote:WhooooAAA! Why must you tempt me like this!

Haha what do you mean, like 80% of my collection is race cars!
Re: Australian Racing - 1971 & 1986 Bathurst Winners
That CC Falcon is awesome...really tempted to add one of those.
Re: Australian Racing - 1971 & 1986 Bathurst Winners
I see you buy one AutoArt Huayra every month LOL. You should add at least couple of Aussie racers. They are awesome.StratosWRC wrote:Haha what do you mean, like 80% of my collection is race cars!

I would, but all this other crap keeps coming up. I found this one canadian retailer that specializes in CC models so I'll check them out for sure.Sanchez wrote:I see you buy one AutoArt Huayra every month LOL.

I've bought through the via eBay and directly, and they are great. Only bad thing is that I have one of everything from CC that they have in stock, so nothing else they have is of interest.Gavin wrote:linpin?

I would not hesitate to order from them again.

Yep linpin. Good to know you've had good experiences. How often do they bring out new stock?
Re: Australian Racing - 1971 & 1986 Bathurst Winners
To my knowledge, their CC offerings have have become quite stagnant, it appears they haven't imported any of the more contemporary Oz models. That's why I commented that I don't do much business with them these days.StratosWRC wrote:Yep linpin. Good to know you've had good experiences. How often do they bring out new stock?
Re: Australian Racing - 1971 & 1986 Bathurst Winners
I think Linpin will not sell CC models anymore so the models are available as the stock lasts.

Re: Australian Racing - 1971 & 1986 Bathurst Winners
Well that's a shame. There are only two models from them that I'm interested in, so I was hoping they'd have more stuff coming.
