Just had them on looking for photos of Andrew and myself from 2002. Again its surprising that of all the Nesbitt cars made, this one was overlooked. Reminded me why I joined facebook - I have just 2 photos from that event of us , both at the ramp. One on the bonnet and the other with the team. None of the car or of us with the famous trophy !!!

You are famous James! The only people who call me up are people trying to tell me i have been mis-sold ppi, had an accident ( i havent) that i can claim for, or offering to sell me solar panels for the 2 days sun we have each year

Bit the bullet and decided to buy the Mcrae Sierra. Not good. 1st one arrived in a lot of bits. Body had broken away from base of car and it ended up being like a rattle can with lots of small bits inside. But on a good note I sent it back and a replacement has arrived in one piece and a mighty fine model it is too.

Just happened to be on the Minitec site yesterday and interestingly they have removed all the pics from the Circuit winners page other than the two models already released....

wonder why that is

Maybe sales of the first two were less than expected? Worth an email to them

reeft1 Wed Jun 15, 2016 6:23 pm

Ive emailed them but all the pictures are still on there as are an RAC/GB collection

Speedy Wed Jun 15, 2016 6:30 pm

Ok my bad but definitely wasn't there when I posted!

reeft1 Wed Jun 15, 2016 7:03 pm

Heard back from Minitec already. Still planning to do the whole collection but "step by step". As a small independent, im thinking 12 yrs rather than 12 months

Mark Lowe Wed Jun 15, 2016 8:30 pm

The Breen DS3 will be ready very soon from SRS Motorsport Models

As expected - some models may never be done as I said previously. Others amaze me that they have not been done previously - one being Colin McRae's Legacy. We are working away on the Circuit collection for Donies show in October.
