The 'E' Type Forum

A mate of mine sent me this link to a company who make various scale models. Their current promotion included a 3.8 fhc (in the most stunning of all paint/trim combos)

Bit pricey though at £540!

Front bumper line looks a bit odd....wonder what the engine looks like....?

From a quick glance, it looks reasonably well done. Is it me or do the wire wheels look a little thin, and the wipers a little strange?

Nice paint job though. It's difficult enough to paint one of those things in a small scale, let alone the real thing! Thankfully my models were painted by Richard - who has the proper kit and has painted both the E-types he restored - I'd be useless

Thats your car Richard!

As Julian says, front bumpers are ‘smiling’ a bit. It’s also on flat hubs rather than curly. Would have also expected some detail on the tyre walls. Having said all that I bet it looks good in the flesh.
I’ve had worse chrimbo pressies!

Well if we’re getting picky then the exhaust tail pipe is wrong it’s a 4.2 one
But what other answers would you expect from us lot

Looks very nice though

And is it just me, or does it look somewhat smaller than a real one?....

Yep, the old spacer wedges syndrome
