                A couple of years ago I decided to try and collect 1:43 scale (Corgi size) models of every type of car I'd ever owned. Starting with the 1965 Anglia 105E 1200 super - DBE 265C - through to my current Insignia 2.0 CDTi, and taking in everything in between. So who can identify them all?Click image for larger version

                  Only 2 I'm struggling with is the red one, ( extreme left 2nd bottom shelf ) which may possibly be a Daewoo??
                  And the bottom right which I've no idea.
                  Picture is kinda blurred and I'm old now .

                    Blimey, you're pretty close. No 2 is actually a Hillman GT (a Minx with a 1725 twin Stromberg), the red one is indeed a Daewoo Espero (well we all make mistakes) and the last one is an insignia Grand Sport (I am getting it on Tuesday).
                    Most of the models are as close to my actual vehicles as possible, and some are pretty rare. The Humber Sceptre is a resin limited edition, and cost almost as much as I paid for the real Anglia in 1973. The Cavaliers should ideal be red (mk 1) and metallic blue-grey (mk 2), the Daewoo green, the Vectra B silver and the GS red. Anyone fancy quoting me for resprays?
