1984 Spark 1/12 Yamaha Rd500, this model has surprised me, super nice details and full working suspension. Another surprise metal tank and rear skirt/fender. Just a great piece quality top to bottom, well done Spark.

I've done the Lamborghini by Pocher and currently working on a 300 SL 1:8. In honesty, the kits are large but the space is limited due to working on individual components at a time, though when final assembly is near the footprint does increase substantially. ;)

That's a great model. Underrated piece from AUTOart.

The bulldog was a character in their commercials for the car, the Honda scooter was designed to collapse to fit in the back of the car. As underrated pieces go this has to to be in Autoarts top 3, Car mats, removable trunk liner to the spare tire. Everyone should check them out. Only a1000 pieces came with the bulldog, red honda scooter, city Turbo 2 and display.
The rest of the models available come with just the bike although in yellow / white or red depending on the car color you purchase (available in silver/white/blue) . nicecardiecast has one of the car and bike left in silver for 179.00 right now . That's quite a steal for this little gem.
