    I need some opinions...i'm thinking to get 250 lM (REIMS VERSION) from Hw elite, 1/18 scale.
    Anyone have one? Is the model ok? Looking at it seems like the old mould from bburago...wich wasn't too bad in my opinion....What do you guys think about the model?

    I have one. Nice model for the money. Not quite as detailed as Cmc or Bbr but a fraction of the price.

    Thanks, my main concern is the exterior look, if the lines ARE OK...

    This version is that in the Maranello Concessionaires livery, isn't it ? ( red with the blue center stripe )
    I have one and the exterior lines I find being almost perfect. Much better than the old Bburago mold. Maybe it came out of the same tooling, but they made something with the window surrounds, what really improved overall impression.
    Interior and engine detail is poor, but I don't care about it. Like you, I think most important is the authentic shape.

    Best Regards
    Martin

    Thanks Martin, thats the exact same model i want.....for the price i can't expect cmc details, just wan´t a fair reproductioon of the real thing to look on a shelf.

    Yap, i really like it, and the wheels are pretty good, same as the 410 and the cali...can't understand why they changed wheels on the 250 swb....they suck...anyway, your version is a ,lot easier to get for a good price, the one i wna't goes a lot pricier...i'll have to look hard for one ;)
