    wreckedferrari - very interesting. I wish it was a hardtop, but that's just me. Please post pics when seats are done.

    F355guy - your collection is unreal.

    Cavallino - I can't find those models (especially the orange F40) on your website - am I just missing it?

    Thanks.

    Regards,
    Joe

    Thanks Paul - looks very cool.

    I think there is a blue F50 on eBay right now, similar to yours. I really like that colour - might bid on it.

    Regards,

    Yes LA Swede "pliers" was the magic word - "TÅNG" in Swedish or "TANG" in Norwegian! :)
    Thanx

    www.ebay.de is a lot cheaper for 1/18 Ferraris than the US ebay. Also has a greater selection. Problem is that (aside from being mostly in German) they usually don't ship overseas, don't accept paypal (bank wires are expensive) and the shipment would run at least twenty bucks.

    So by the time the model is in the US you're better off buying it here. I use German Ebay only for one-off cases you don't find in the US or are ridiculously priced here.

    Luckily I speak German and have friends in Europe to whom I have the cars shipped. Currently I have a TR spider and a 456 spider sitting there waiting for my next trip to be picked up.
    :)

    Thats right - its very sad that MOST of the germans DONT use PAYPAL, so I use to send money cash in an envelope, most of the cars I buy does not cost more than 25 Euro inc.shipping - I pay 8,20 Euro for shipping to Norway, the weight limit is upto 2 KG, so I can buy 2 cars from the same seller and save alots of money. This 8,20 price is withOUT insurance.
    And like you said Andreas, the selection in Germany are lot better rather than ebay.com - earlier today I won a silver McLaren F1 for 4.50 Euro + a blue F50
    Hard Top for 6 Euro from the same seller. I think that was a good deal.
    But I wish more of the German people could use PAYPAL.
    If you find a cool car on ebay.de - you can always write to the seller and ask him/her if they ship overseas, 98% of those I ask if they send to Norway, says yes.....most Germans SPEAK very bad english, but they WRITE perfect.
