Lucky man to have had one... Guy at my work has a new ish one the last gen v10. Ho Lee crap. Bmw's do not normally sound amazing being straight 6's for the best part. This thing sounds awesome lol


Also do you have pics

I'm going to make a big push to finish the 360 in the next week or so while prepping the BMW Sprues for primer. I'm going to make a real effort to build this before Christmas but I do have a baby coming haha

No pics Dougie, this was 20 years ago & if I took any they've long been lost


It's not as much by today's standards, but neatly 300 bhp going through the rear wheels made for a lively drive in the wet!

Nice one man, I have 250 bhp through 4 wheels and I know the car really should have had 300. That must have been a hoot to drive. Pity about the pics

Hi Dougie


I don't think I've ever seen a 1/16 car build before. How big is the body? I think it should be pretty impressive when complete.


Looking forward to the progress.


Cheers

There are a good few 1/16 kits from a few years back, fujimi did some a while back but I think nowadays they are not really made.


This batmobile is about 290*125*100mm l*w*h


I have this, a fujimi Ferrari 288 GTO and a fujimi f40.


I need an f40 in 1/12 haha but no I'm not that well off, they seem to cost the earth.


Cheers mate

A finish is a finish Dougie...it doesn't matter when and besides...we are model makers...we never 100% finish a kit!
