1:43-scale Ford Sierra RS Cosworth Minichamps, £79.99 It’s good to see Stig Blomqvist’s Sierra rallying career depicted in miniature, and with typical Minichamps attention to detail including a highly intricate interior. Exactly what you’d expect for £80. 1:18-scale Toyota Celica Gt-four Top Model, £227.99 This model of Didier Auriol’s 1994 Tour de Corse Toyota Celica Gt-four is dramatic and bold with its bright colours and wide stance. Although the interior’s as well-énished as the exterior, the windows are so heavily tinted you can’t see it without a torch. 1:43-scale Ford Mach 2 Autocult, £99.99 This 1967 concept paved the way for both the 1971 Mustang restyle and the De Tomaso Pantera, and with faithfully-rendered design features you can see how. Pity about the oversized steering wheel, but overall it’s comparable to Matrix and Neo models. 1:18-scale Aston Martin DB2 Tecnomodel, £239.99 There’s something a little too low and wide about this Aston’s stance, but given the lack of 1:18 DB2S elsewhere we’re not complainin­g, especially when the rest of it is so énely-judged, twodimensi­onal window trim aside.
