'Modern' Vehicles (1:76)

[Rob]

Any ideas of where to source 'modern' & 'normal' 1:76 scale vehicles (cars) for a layout?

Majority of anything available is vintage (60's) or exclusive (Aston Martin's etc).

Seems impossible to get anything post 2000's you'd find in lreland like a Passat or a Focus!!

Really need to go for 1:87 scale for modern stuff, Oxford do have some Range Rovers & a Volvo but not much else for modern times.

Here is a Ford Focus at 1:87;- https://www.minichamps.de/kategorie_neu/street-car/?order=ASC&orderby=title&suchbegriff=&filter_scale=187&filter_material=&filter_jahr=&filter_hersteller=&filter_lieferbarkeit=&filter_fahrer=&filter_haendler=&filter_sammler=&filter_marke=ford

Try Cararama models 1/72 .There are others but I cant remember the names. Ebay is best for them -I picked up loads. The roughly work out at €2 - 3 each if your lucky.

Loads of current models here
Brian Collins (trading as Brian Collins Enterprises) of this parish also stocks loads of these 
And some of the traders at Bray Wheelers have examples from time to time.

Also noticed that Oxford produce a Tayto Truck with Dublin Reg which may be of interest to some. https://www.hattons.co.uk/36148/oxford_diecast_76sp032_bedford_tk_mr_tayto_/stockdetail.aspx
