My humble collection.

More to come.

It's a Jaguar XJ13 by Autoart.

It was built to be raced in the Le Mans but Jaguar switched their focus to consumer cars during one of its production stages. By the time the car was ready for the Le Mans, the rules have already been changed, making the XJ13 obsolete. There's only one real car of this model in this world, a true classic with a touch of modern design. One of my favorite cars of all times.

Detailed XJ13 Review

Take a bit of time off and have a read. Enjoy

@Ericmaxman: It's a normal F430, I'm planning on acquiring the spyder for my dad to congratulate him for getting the real one and the scud from BBR when it gets announced. But that would mean 7 days without food . Anyway, here are more pics, as requested. Enjoy

@Jasonist: Just a fellow collector.

@Hokuan & Myke: Yeap, but sadly it's a spider though .

@Myke: I might wanna let go of the bbr, are you interested?

Few more shots before V3 ends.

"Capturing the essence"

@Hokuan: Haven't really decided on the price and the idea of letting it go but will notice you first thing it goes up for sale.

@Jchue73: I wouldn't mind but you might have to wait till the end of September because I'm still in Australia and the car is back in Miri. I'll be going back for the holidays and will share some pics with you.

@Jasonist & REALCollector: I went to a diecast shop today and you wouldn't believe the amount of HW Elites they have. They also have around 20 Exotos and CMCs, including the long sold out 1/18 CMC SLR McLaren selling at only AUD350. I thought about buying it but it seems that the model has been kept quite long and there are white mold-like substances forming at the trunk area so I left it. Heaven for 1/43 diecast car fans too with the cars they have in there
