The 499p Le Mans winning hypercar, a Porsche 911 RSR and this GTE. The level of detail, overall shape and presentation of these models is spot on. Although considered toys by serious model snobs these can easily hold their own sat alongside much more expensive diecasts. I should also mention their 1/24 F1 range which are extremely well done. Aside from the F1 models this GTE probably takes first prize for detail and the flawless candy red paint job. Decal application is also superb and all are well applied. Interior has some detail, it's hard to see but the engine is clearly visible. The door shut lines are astonishingly precise, so much so they are difficult to open, a fingernail at the bottom is the best method. Another plus point is the inclusion of side windows which is usually the reserve of much more expensive models. The only bad points are this particular model came from mainland Europe and they have this annoying habit of shipping everything in paper bags! The box suffered minor damage but fortunately the car was untouched. This may bother those who like to display in the boxes. Also the car sits off it's wheels when attached to the base meaning the wheels droop leaving a 4x4 arch gap. I'll be modifying this to drop it down to the ground. All in all a highly recommended model that punches way above its price point.
