I've got a sizeable collection of a couple of dozen sports, racing and classic cars in 1/18 scale and yes my wife does complain about me turning the house into a small scale parking garage.
My latest acquisition is this dandy 1948 Land Rover S1>
This miniature represents a very early LR and has some features that are odd even by Land Rover Standards including three abreast seating in the front.
You can read more about it here.
Let's hear from any 1/18 scale fans.

maybe when I finally move I will have my own space where I can put in the right size shelving.
2020 Acura RDX tech SH-AWD, 2023 Maverick hybrid Lariat luxury package.
I would have happily lived with something like this over the RDX we bought, but the wife would have none of getting another station wagon after her minivan years!
oh, no clue what it is.

Around here, this is called a Holden Commodore Sportswagon. A rather pretty model, a little smaller than conventional wagons. If you get it, have a test drive as they are well made and very pleasant to drive. The current models have all the electronic goodies that one can want. May be the last rear drive Commodore.
Cheers

It's very sad to read that the RWD Commodore may be discontinued, where will we get our muscle cars from? :confuse:
There's a slim chance we may get a Chevy SS wagon, probably less than slim if they decide to can the rear-drive Commodores.

Also I can't figure out where the lever is for the transfer case, is it one of those pull knobs in the dash or the small lever next to the right seat which looks like the hand brake? :confuse:

Also I can't figure out what they used to engage the transfer case, was it the small lever next to the right (driver's) seat which looks like a hand brake or one of the pull out knobs in the center dash. :sick:

For some reason, the car behind the Beetle doesn't look like a Benz to me. My first impression was a Peugeot 403. In front of the Beetle it looks like a later Hillman Minx and the blue wagon across the street looks like a Vauxhall Victor or similar. However, keep in mind that I have lived in the US of A my entire life and my knowledge of cars from elsewhere is limited.
2009 BMW 335i, 2003 Corvette cnv. (RIP 2001 Jaguar XK8 cnv and 1985 MB 380SE [the best of the lot])
I will pick off a few - looks like a Riley parked near red umbrellas near the beach, a light colored Citroen DS near the middle, Near the woman at bottom right, a couple of Opel Rekords.

Got the brand right.
I think you're right. They are Opels as opposed to Vauxhalls (my original guess).

6x6.
Supposedly out in October and if you have to ask the price, you can't afford it. :shades:
Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG 6x6 Six-Wheel Debuts
The six wheel chassis arose from an Australian Army contract which is now slowly being delivered. Glad to see it is being used more widely. I love the driving lights above the cab. The G Wagon is remarkably long lived; first one that I saw had been captured by British forces from the Argentinians during the Falklands War and was repatriated to a British Military Museum. By the time I was in Britain in the 1990s they were faintly popular although always expensive.
Originally they were powered by lowish powered diesel and petrol engines and only seem to have scored the full AMG and G55 work over in recent times.
When MB Australia scored the contract with the Australian Army, they decided to try selling in Australia again. A product experience trip with journalists along the Canning Stock Route in Western Australia went horribly wrong. The shock absorbers on seven of eight G Wagons failed, the only intact one being the military specification Professional. Not a great launch experience! I suspect that MB slipped off to reconsider as I cannot recall seeing a civilian G Wagon around.
The military spec G Wag on is a different story. The base 4wd and 6wd chassis is built by Magna Steyr in Graz, then shipped to MB Australia, a couple of kilometres from me. They are then adapted to Australian army needs. The military spec vehicles are rugged and the contract has been expanded. They are a dramatic improvement on ancient LandRovers.

If the Fusion is a little too exciting for ya.

Ferrari 400i, a 2+2 from the late 70-s IIRC, Enzo himself drove one.
Current model Ferrari California, a Folding hardtop design with none of the good looks and charisma of 250GT Spider California it was named after.
1960s Ferrari 330GTE/2+2, an underappreciated four passenger design from the golden era.

When I was in Cologne in November, there was one parked on the street all the time, rain or shine. Seemed risky, I bet they decompose fast.
Evidently you've never seen Top Gear trying to kill a Hi-Lux:

I've checked, and yes, you are. :P The latest Sports Car Market Price Guide gives it a "D" rating on "investment", the lowest rating there is;
HOWEVER (here comes the bright spot)--the fact that they are the cheapest Ferrari you can buy on the face of the earth ($19,000 can get you a clean driver) means that someone is bound to notice soon and they see the prospect of a 15% gain in value this coming year.
I'd never buy one though, maintenance scares me.
2001 BMW 330ci/E46, 2008 BMW 335i conv/E93
From the prancing horse on the nose and little emblem on the flank, it is a Ferrari but not one that I know. The coachbuilt body might be by Vignale, from the lines and I guess from about 1950-55. I assume that it is British delivery from the Right Hand Drive, but plates are wrong for any RHD country that I can think of.

I know because the owner of the dealership I worked at had a coupe version and it won a ton of awards.
I imagine this drop top is even rarer, one of one?
2016 Audi A7 3.0T S Line, 2021 Subaru WRX
Yes, it is a Vignale-bodied 1952 Ferrari 212 Europa cabriolet.
It wasn't until the mid-late 50s that Pininfarina became the coachbuilder of choice for Ferrari. There are many early Ferraris by Vignale and Touring.
The pictured car s/n 0255EU is available for only for only $1,650,000 :sick:

There are a number of Simca Arondes The earliest one is passing the Riley whilst next to it the lemon / blue one is a later version with the second grille. and the grey car which is about to pass by is the third type. That car is being overtaken by what I think is a Simca Ariane or Vedette.
The car beyond the passing grey Aronde looks like another Opel Rekord.
Also there is a Citroen 2CV parked behind the cream coloured Renault 4CV /750.
On our side of the central reservation there is another Simca Aronde in front of the Ford 100E, a Studebaker Hawk (57?) and ahead of that a Jaguar (later retrospectively known as a MkI).

It is a MB from the 1970s.

Sorry it is so small
Wow, brilliant. I've seen lots of 1970s Mercedes but never that one.
Anyone else?
