Nuremberg Day 1 News
A fair bit from both the office and Nuremberg to cover today.
Firstly in Guildford, the latest delivery from AUTOart showed up. On it was the next colourway for the 1:18 Koenigsegg CCX, silver (AA79003). Two A1GP cars from Teams China (AA18101) and Germany (AA18103) also appeared, along with two more colourways of the Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4, white (AA74587) and metallic orange (AA74593).
News from the first day of action at Nuremberg was on the Minichamps stand, where Leigh and co spotted the 1:12 Rossi Catalunya bike from 2008 (DCL2008). The accompanying 1:12 riding figure was also on show (PO80086). To finish off Rossi was his 1:12 2009 Yamaha YZR-M1 (PO93046), but one more addition to the bike scene was Kevin Schwantz’s 1993 World Championship-winning Suzuki RGV 500 (P932034), which we will be having signed by Mr Schwantz (P932034S) once we receive them.
Ayrton Senna’s Ralt RT3 from Macau 1983 is there as well in 1:18 (AS833). Another car seen on the Minichamps stand was a full-scale replica of Michael Schumacher’s 2010 Mercedes MGP W01……wonder what the size of the box is for that!
Photos from Nuremberg will arrive tomorrow!
