A 97 Peugeot 406, driven by Patrick Watts.
Also, 98 Volvo s40-Morbidelli.
And a - 98 Nissan Primera-Leslie

Thats it then, my Onyx collection would be complete.

Its always the same, the models i need hardly ever come up for auction on eBay.

As i was saying above, these 96 Honda's are rarer compared to the regular Vauxhall's or Renaults that seem to be forever up for sale.

It took me ages to get hold of the 98 Kox livery Honda accord, got lucky at the beggining of the year with a buy it now, the guy selling had only just listed it too.

Yes know what you mean, patience most definitely is a virtue in these circumstances.

I've been looking for a Mark Blair Vectra for ages. I've only ever seen about 3 come up in 3 years!!

daz90 · 25 Sep 2010, 11:55 (Ref:2764353)

There is a Mark Blair Vectra listed on eBay right now, bit pricey though with a buy it now price of £29.99.

I've hardly ever seen them and I'm on ebay every day near enough. Mind you I haven't got this down as a saved search so i'm not guaranteed to see them come up newly listed?

yea of course, it doesnt come up very often but the ones that have been on have sold for less then £10 ...2 or 3 atleast.... normally seeing the rare ones fetching more money then that, so maybe if i say now, its rare but doesnt sell very much?

did onyx use the same shell on the opel versions of the vectras?
the minichamps model above looks much a better shape then the onyx ones too

tator2001uk · 14 Oct 2010, 19:10 (Ref:2775045)

If anyone has a local modelzone shop they have for £3.99 the alfa romea 147 cup and a wtcc alfa for sale they are in loose type plastic packaging but still nice little things!

Yes saw those in my local one. There's loads on ebay, the packaging looks like the sort you get stuck to the front of a magazine. Bit like those tv advertised jobbies:

"NOW YOU CAN collect week by week in 12 special issues some of Italy's most insignificant racing cars with their story of how they didn't win very much, broke down a lot but still created a random cult following.....

"First is the Alfa GTV6, a superb sounding car and a good racer but you could find yourself with serious leg injuries if the propshaft goes and comes up through the floor."

"Next week it's the Alfa 179 that broke down whilst leading by miles in the 1980 Watkins Glen GP from which it's driver never recovered...."

Don't miss out they're coming to a newsagents near you!!!

Seriously the ETC GTV6 I got for tuppence ha'pny is ok but it ain't Minichamps quality.

Minichamps made 4 Irmscher sponsored vectra's they were:

1 x silver #19 Engstler STW 1998 season begins (with the blue rims)
1 x silver #19 Engstler STW 1998 mid-season
1 x silver #20 Asch 1999 STW
1 x white #20 Asch Edition Salzburgring STW 1999

As you can see the white version was only produced in 500 models.
