VW Phaeton depreciation, 1/43 scale


I bought a couple of used model cars on Ebay from a guy who has a frighteningly similar collection to mine.  He's whittling down his collection in order to focus on restoring his Bavarian classic (a true 1:1 car).

Both of these cars sold for around $50 new.  I won the Ebbro Honda Accord (Acura TSX) for $47.  I won the above Minichamps Phaeton for $15.50.

    Jajaja, unloved regardless of scale.

    And yes, what a nice collection.

    Thanks Alan and Viva. I'm actually even more proud of the fancy case that the cars are displayed in.
