The video of the making of this car is:

Nice effort. Looks great. Reminds me of the Union Jack on minis.

But shouldn't the map be facing the other way round? As one generally looks at cars from front.

Haha...Maybe it should have...but in person it doesn't look weird, anyone who looks at it, looks at it from all sides.
You are the first one to observe this, and maybe it should have been the other way around.

Great custom Nano you got there.

Even I have a custom Nano, this one was wrapped by Tata only for their Nano Superdrive campaign. This was gifted to my fried who was the official photographer for that drive.

My second favourite Tata Nano..I saw Jay Leno's garage and saw the Tata Nano that was gifted to him by Tata motors.
With that car as my inspiration, I made this.

You have some serious skill at putting together a scale model. Kudos.

I have been clicking my cars on a regular basis and have now started putting them up on my insta page : instagram.com/wheels.n.wings

Putting some of them up here as well.

Thank you for your compliments. Along with my Rolls Royce's this Merc is my favourite car model. I simply love it for its beauty and colour. You could contact Kunal Narang at carcollectiveonline@gmail.com . He is a dealer and could help. He is based in Mumbai. You can give him my reference - it won't help you with getting a better rate mind you :-(

Created a new thread for the RC Crawlers on the forum. Wondering how many more of us are here.

Recently broke my Super Rare White Autoart Aventador Roadster, it was like a massive hole in my Aventador collection. Filled it with a Yellow Roadster, no white this is but it will do for time being. Added a Black SV also. Current Aventador count is 4 Coupe, 3 SV, 1 Roadster.

Couldn't help but notice the Miura on the top right. Is that an AutoArt or a Kyosho? Do you mind sharing a few pics?

Neither. It is a Welly, brilliant VFM model. I have a yellow also, which is packed and kept due to space constraint in display

Nice! And you're right found a yellow one on ebay for under 50$.

I recently bought a Mahindra Thar scale model from the M2ALL site. It is not a metal scale model , but built using strong plastics. Has a pull back action and working headlights. The detailing is pretty good for the price I paid.
