1:18 Collector from India
Posted: Sun Apr 12, 2020 6:35 am
Hello All,
I'm a collector based out of India. I collect 1:18 exclusively and I've been collecting for a while now. However, being from India, it's hard to find company, so though I'd try my luck here.
As I mentioned earlier, I collect only 1:18, largely in 2 categories, viz., Formula 1 and Street.
Among the street cars, my collection of about 50 is dominated by Autoart and CMC (16 Autoart and 17 CMC). I generally prefer cars that pre-date 1980. The list includes the Uhlenhaut SLR (both versions), the Ferrari 250 GTO (midnight blue and red), the Aston Martin DB4 (goodwood green) and the Bugatti Atlantic (both blue and black versions) from CMC; and almost all the Corvettes (1963, 1968, 1969, 1978 and 1982) along with the Jaguar e type, the Aston Martin DB5 and the Lamborghini Muira from Autoart .
Have also amassed about 50 F1 cars. This includes all championship winning cars from 1998 to 2019 (i.e., from the Mclaren MP4-13 to the Mercedes W10), plus one offs like the RB-12 (Max's first win), the SF-71 (Kimi's last win), Williams FW26 (Walrus nose), Honda RA106 (Button's first win), etc.
Happy to share pics, opinions, resources, etc.
Cheers,
Jeevith
