If anyone on the forum knows the people at Acme or CC ask if they will import some of the 1/18th scale ATCC touring car racers out of Australia. Classic have some subjects that I would really like to be able to buy in Europe, and not have to pay crippling amounts for shipping.....

Yes, the molds are about 3/4 years old. Would not call that quite old.

Very well detailed. They did both the Lola and the Matich. With the actual subjects, they could have chosen more popular Lolas. You can still pick them up at retail in some shops.
