My Models
I started by collecting Matchbox 1-75 models but gradually have found others I like so the collection is now rather diverse. I have had a few Corgi Formula 1 cars for years but have now acquired a few more.
I have recently started to collect Ferrari models, unfortunately there are rather a lot and the more detailed ones I prefer are not cheap.
This section covers the more diverse part of my collection

Austin A95 Westminster Countryman - num 15
Colour - Blue
Base - silverCasting Year 1960Scale 1:65This model Made in England
Comments - No.15 Austin Countryman was probably the most popular model in the Esso Petrol Pump and Budgie Miniatures collection. First issued as Esso Series No.15 Austin Countryman in 1957, it was made from the start by Modern Products Ltd. and remained on sale until 1970. It was also adapted to create two further models.
The casting, a conventional body & base model, was a good representation of the Austin A95 Westminster Countryman on which it was based. The model measured 66mm long.
Orange instead of blue,became the standard colour when Budgie re-issued the Austin Countryman in 1960 but the silver side flashes were discontinued. Metal wheels continued but after a time these were switched to grey plastic which were either pale or dark grey.
This one appears to be overpainted orange.3 Larger images are available for this model - View Large
