How Quickly Will Vettel’s BMW Go From 1 To 0?

Nothing new arrived today, but we did receive some significant restocks.

After a few months’ wait we received Spark’s re-supplies of their 1:43 Ecurie Ecosse transporter (SPK285), which we had built up quite a few backorders on.

We were also able to acquire a tiny number of the 1:43 Trofeu presentation of Colin McRae’s Subaru Impreza from the 1993 RAC Rally (TR003). This sold out on release a couple of months ago, so anyone who missed out then now has a chance to make amends, as long as you get your order in quickly!

Finally, while taking a tour of the warehouse this afternoon, I noticed that we still have a Sebastien Vettel 1:43 BMW F1.06 testcar left (DC26443V). It was also a sell-out on release, but a customer’s card must have declined because there is now just one sitting on the shelf all on its own. I’m sure that if it went up on our website we would oversell in an instant, so I’m offering it to one of you loyal diary readers out there! There is literally just one available though, so you’ll have to phone our Orderline on 0870 460 3456 quickly if you want to seize it!
