Leigh’s Diecast Diary

It’s the final countdown! There are just two days to go until the three-way title decider in the Brazilian Grand Prix. As soon as it’s finished, I’ll be posting an entry launching our 2007 F1 World Champion presentation.

For the twelfth year in a row we will be taking the 1:18 replica of the champion and mounting it on a wooden base, bordered with plaques detailing his results in every Grand Prix of his successful campaign. The only question is, will it be Lewis Hamilton’s McLaren, Fernando Alonso’s McLaren, or Kimi Raikkonen’s Ferrari mounted on the base?

Whoever wins, it will cost £79.99 and come complete with a perspex cover to protect it from the dust.

Within a week of the Philip Island Moto GP, Minichamps have already announced a 1:12 replica of Valentino Rossi’s Yamaha YZR-M1 on which he finished the race in third place (PO73196). Yamaha sported their second, and last, one-off livery of the season in that race, to promote the Fiat Abarth brand.

An extra post to make sure all my readers know about the huge discount on Oakley sunglasses that GPL are offering. This is a limited offer so you will need to be quick.  All of our Oakley sunglasses are marked down by 30%. That’s not just up to or some styles. All Oakley styles we stock are all 30% off.

Now I know it’s not summer but with ski trips around the corner, and low sun when driving to and from work, having a pair of Oakleys will not only protect your eyes but at the moment also your wallet.

My favourite pair are the Oakley Ducati Square Wire Sunglasses

Anyway, back to work. Another post will follow later today.
