Great customer service
Great customer service spoke to one of the advisor on the phone on the 16th January 26, OMG so amazing (so sorry forgotten her name) in regards to my purchase. They went out the extra mile to look at the product that I wanted and reserved it for me until the payment was made as it was the last one in stock.
I will definitely recommend this company 5*
(Bought Las Vegas F1 Redbull purple 1.43 scale model car)

I am very sorry about the car. We don't choose the postage for the car. The car is brand new, we get it straight from manufacturer. We are one of the cheapest for that car. Please give we a call on 07765691908

Model Ford Capri Car
After a considerable time looking elsewhere I finally found a model of a car a very good friend raved about.
The car is a good quality model which I know will be cherished and put on display
