Rob Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 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!!

murrayec Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 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 Eoin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Portoman Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 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. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WRENNEIRE Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 (edited) 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. https://www.oxforddiecast.co.uk/collections/1-76?constraint=oxford-diecast Edited August 14, 2020 by WRENNEIRE 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ironroad Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 Link to Brian Collins Enterprises http://www.briancollinsenterprises.ie 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 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
