After a day of soul searching I've placed my order! It's quite expensive. I built a Kit car version with a V8 engine and I've been lucky enough to drive the real thing. It's a handful with poor vision around the uk streets. Still an icon and one of the first dream cars of most boys in the 70's. I previously built the Deagostini MP4-23 and it sits happily in a glass lit cabinet , along with lots of other Lewis memorabilia. This will go on a shelf in there too.

Great looking setting for you McLaren Mr T is right, I'd get some shelf reinforcements in there if I were you. The Lamborghini is a fantastic quality kit but she's a bit of a beast weight wise. No weight watchers club for this kit! All these fantastic kits that are coming online now, the Lamborghini, the T-72 has just been announced, the Honda 750 and so many others. And we get to know straight away too on the forum. We are so lucky having a forum like Model Space. Without it we would be back to the bad old days of roaming the internet trying to find out what has been released, wouldn't we guys? There are so many kits on here, I don't know what to choose next, and the quality is simply stunning! 'Gold for the price of silver' ! Hooray for Model-Space!!!!
