Some Real Examples of (Auto)Art

posted in Other Cars |

It was the Grand Prix Legends quiz night last night. Sadly, it was general knowledge rather than motorsport, so I was next to useless. The team I was on still performed well though, doing the ‘Raikkonen Special’, going into the last round in third place to then snatch victory, and all the glory that goes with it, by just a single point.

Anyway, diecast news. Today AUTOart announced a whole raft of new replicas, in both 1:18 and 1:43 scale.

In 1:18 scale, we have race and road cars, including the menacing 2007 Porsche RS Spyder in carbon fibre (AA80773), three versions of the Porsche 908/3 from the 1970s, three colours of the Porsche 997 GT3, and the Subaru Impreza S204 (AA78671). All of these are currently at the top of our ‘New Announcements’ category.

In 1:43, we have the cars that have proven so popular in 1:18, the Koenigsegg CCX in orange (AA59001), black (AA59002) and silver (AA59003), and the Bugatti Veyron in black/red (AA50906), black/blue (AA50907) and pearl/blue (AA50908).

    I know it’s not technically diecast, but is there any chance you could feature one of Jim Bamber’s car sculptures on your vidcast? I’d love to see what one looks like ‘in the flesh’.

    Will do, but they’re not due for release until towards the end of November. When they’re in I’ll feature them in a webcast.
