Thread: Landrover Toy Cars

Try any of the model shops in your area, they can normally halp with a nice die-cast model, some can get pricey as well as certian brands are more collectable.

But shouldnt be hard to find.

Try a Land rover dealership, they all have them

BigW has a selection of 95-01 type RR's & SII Discos (Matchbox size). There's also some mega chunky Freelander models (about 2 x Matchbox size) that are the pullback & release type.

Arvo RobG65,

Ok,
(ya gonna love this...not! :roll: )
The one you can buy from Land Rover costs $131.31 (approx)
Part #: LRO 0572.
It is the current 2004 model.
It is only availible in 'Giverney Grey'
It is 1: 18 scale.

I have one (others didn't want it - i seem to be a dumping ground for this stuff)
It is pretty :? , nothing opens and the wheels move. Thats all i can tell you about it.

They do not make a 'classic' model anymore.
Or: you can go for the collectors 'pewter' edition for a mere...$1,540.00 - 8O 8O 8O you did read correctly...more than $1k....OUCH! :roll:

Right....I'm done
(am sourcing a non-L/R one for you too...) Sure this one will be much more fun and cheaper for the young one!

Back soon with details....

Cheers
Knight :wink:

hmmmm,

Well, it does seem that no-one makes a 1:18 scale Rangie anymore!

But i did find a couple of good model car suppliers (not all are in VIC though)

Here it goes:

http://www.shiremodels.com.au/public/home.ehtml
= Shire Models, 814 Old Princes Highway, Sutherland NSW 2232,
Ph02) 9542 4954

http://www.pitstopmodelcars.com.au/index.asp
= PITSTOP MODEL CARS, 41 Bakery Square, Melton, Victoria 3337
Ph: (03) 9743 1100

http://www.diecastdownunder.com/pages/dd-home.htm
= Diecast Down Under - a magazine for all you model needs - Maybe you can contact a 'guru' from here and see what they can tell you?

All of the above have a great range of L/R models, yet they are alot smaller than the one you are looking for! (mostly matchbox sizes)

That's it folks, that's all i got......

Good Luck with it.....

Cheers
Knight

Is there a Defender Ute amongst them somewhere :?:

Gday Everyone!,
Thanks for the ideas...I have found a small P38 Rangie that will do for now, until I can find a Classic.

THanks for your efforts Knight!....but rather than spending $1540 for a pewter edition, I think that money could be better spent on a front locker...hmmmmm.

Though I might let him have the 2004 diecast just so he can say he's is better than mine..lol.

cheers
