My 2-year-old's Mk 7

Postby Tran59 » Fri Feb 19, 2010 9:33 am

Wasn't sure which section to post these photos in, but I thought you might like to see the 1:18 scale replica of my Transit I found for our son. Note the electrical-tape 'rear glazing' I stuck on to make it look even more like my van and qualify for the 'Customising & one-off' section :)

I got mine from Amazon UK for £9.99. Try this link http://www.amazon.co.uk/Scale-Friction- ... 239&sr=8-2

The doors are a bit flimsy when you open them (I have SuperGlued them shut for my 2-year-old), but otherwise quality isn't bad for the money. It's a plastic friction toy, though, not a diecast, so collectors beware :wink: It's also LHD.
