Hmm, your worse than me.

Last year I had.

The S2,
A 2.3 Coupe FWD.
both 8 and a 16 valve B3 quattro saloons.
B2 90 quattro
T4.
MK II GTi 16V.

After much rationalisation I've now got.

The 1990 S2, this is staying permanently, invested far too much time, effort and money to even consider selling her.

The 1988 16V MK II is also going no where. I'll never get another one as good, FSH 110K miles, leather, Oak Green three door un-messed with totaly original. Smashing

Corrado 1990 G60 LHD, I'm 'supposed' to be selling this. No chance, it's F'in awesome, lovely condition and the history is even better than the Golf. Only 68K miles. Also NO sunroof so I can get inside it properly. A keeper for sure.

The 1996 T4, this is sold, just got about a weeks worth of work to finish off before the buyer picks her up. Looking forward to moving this on as the cash will really help my business.

So I'll be down to Three, all good investments (maybe not the S2), which I think is quite reasonable.

Not really a collector, but I've got a couple of Chevron sport quattros in HB livery. Still in the plastic. Will build them one day when my boys are old enough to lend a hand.

What is a good chassis to start with? 4wd of course.

You need a B2 CQ and a Three door B2 80 to build up a faithful SWB shell.

I have Kyosho 1/8th Nitro Escort rally car. It's a bit old and hasn't seen the light of day for a while...
I'm thinking of getting an electric monster truck or truggy... could be fun.

[K Simmonds]

Ahh, are we talking posh Airofix models here?

[bluequattro]

Cutting down on real cars, cost me too much!
Aby type 85 quat coupe
90 20 valve quat ( 2nd time owned it!)
2.2 gt
V6 80 coupe
Disco td5
And a vw sharan for the lady

[K Simmonds]

Yes, now I've looked at the photo's properly I can see we're talking models, in which case I don't see as it's a problem. Unless, you construct a special house for them (better than your own), name them all personally and make engine noises whilst pushing them about.

Though I'd start worrying long before it got to that point.

Nah, these move under their own power!
Amazing quality for a model made in 1979, suspension is as good as the real thing

Only the one - A Tamiya TA02 4WD chassis with two touring car body shells
1) BMW 3 series (in yellow)
2) Peugeot 406
I fitted the "hop up" bearings, motor & electronic speed controller
