    Love that S60! I've been trying to buy one but everywhere says "out of stock" Even if Volvo disappears in the near future I think that car will always been remembered as classic.

    I bought this model car for my dad for his birthday this year, Two of his good mates Trevor Ashby and Steve Reed were some of the top privateer drivers in the old touring car days. When they used to come up from Sydney to race in QLD when I was a kid, they used to have the race car in my garage at home (I think it was a VC commodore back then) with the pit crew preparing it for the race. I was allowed to stay up late and watch them work then go to the track with them for raceday.

    I spent many years following this team and hanging in the pits at tracks like Surfers Paradise raceway and Lakeside (back in the day) and also at the Surfers Indycar races when they were support races and also one year at Bathurst where they had the best finishing record of any privateer teams in their time. When they got too old to drive they put some kid called Jason Richards in for a steer before selling the team off to team Kiwi.
    I didn't even know they made models of this car until I uncovered one on gumtree in August, my old man nearly cried when he saw it and had all those memories flood back.

    I loved the livery with the NASCAR style number 33 on the side, but its never looked as good as the retro livery they ran at Sandown and Bathurst.

    sometimes, these types of collections are the best kind. You don't need a mountain of cars like some of us have (myself included) to get that emotional attachment

    Missed out on the f1 collection. Did manage the Ferrari collection previous. Only just found a cabinet big enough to display them all.

    So if you join late in this subscription I am guessing there is no way to get the cars that have already come out?

    I don't think so.... however it'd be worth asking in an email to them.
