I'm contemplating another plastic kit build before getting into a new 1/8 scratch build. (Streamline lightweight Jaguar)

I'm choosing between these two - they are both 1/12 scale...

Any opinions?

Roy.

Hard call, the 935 looks enticing but you don’t see many builds of the 240Z

My call would be for the 935, but that’s because I just love anything Porsche Love , and it’s in Martini livery.
But can appreciate it’s a tough decision

Hi Roy,
I have two of these Porsche kits in my collection. It will be really good to see what you can do with this knowing your past build experience. I have always been put off building these kits because of the price that these kits can bring on the second hand market.
I hope to build at least one of them though some time soon.
I'm looking forward to seeing your build log.
Best Regards
Keith.
