And I would say that the shade of blue on the box is credible, the actual model is too light...

and so far I had missed that they also make a 1/12 version.

Space, oh space!

Hello, like every year for 27 years now, the Italian Car Club Belgium organizes its September meeting on Sunday Sept. 1st, at the Val Saint Lambert park near Liege. Free access for Italian cars, static display during whole day, usual attendance 250-300 cars. This year special feature on Giulietta Sp...

What the market offers (1/43): Red Spider QV

OK, there's some less expensive option (and you get the hardtop along): Silas Spider QV

Still 2x too small and 2x too expensive for your target... Good luck with the (almost) free lunch.

Completely agree!

The company FADISA (Fabricación de Automóviles Diésel SA) was created 1956 for the assembly of Romeo vans. They were produced only from 1959 on in the Avila plant. Then in 1967, Motor Iberica (former Ford Motor Iberica, now without any tie left with Ford) bought out the Fadisa plant and had "Eb...

Sad news indeed, I feel very sorry.

He had both a very nice style and a deep passion for Alfas. He has done a huge job in raising Het Klaverblaadje together with Ben Heldrickx.

In the latest Klaverblaadje, Fer shows in the MARC article a small picture of the 24HP engine built by Autodelta43 in 1/43 scale . Such a little jewel deserves being better reproduced than the small picture, as its level of built quality and finish easily stands being magnified with macro photo. I d...

It is now the season for wishing all Alfa miniature collectors a happy 2019 with many mini-Alfas. 2018 was the 80th anniversary of the 158, so I will close this birthday year with 158s in various forms: How about a 158/159 in crystal? https://im5.freeforumzone.it/up/58/15/1453655720.jpg Ok, it's dif...

I have recently found a few pecurliar Alfa Romeo models, among which one remains a mistery for me, as it is not listed in Fer's listing nor do I see any reference that could match in any other publication. It is a 1/32 Tipo B (P3) Monoposto, quite heavy, so my best guess for now would have it made o...

The Riva Cattaneo has been reviewed with detail pictures on this page . While the overall work of Marco Sambataro is very good, as is the choice of the model, I can't help but regret some minor quality faults that should be avoided in such a price range. I certainly don't want to play down Gulp, on ...

RIO die-cast 1:43: de M4/Rio/Best Italia groep komt ‘eindelijk’ met een model van de eerste A.L.F.A. De 24 HP lag toch jaren voor de hand maar kwam nooit van RIO. Niet de kwaliteit en prijs van handbouw van Racing43 of Autodelta43/Maurizo Sabatini, een latere 24 HP Torpedo. Maar een redelijk model ...

It looks to be actually a 33 TT 12.

Let's go for an unusual Alfa toy? So, this time, no car, no truck, not even a trolleybus. As explained in many Alfa Romeo history books, and also in Het Klaverblaadje 8) :wink: , Alfa survived the 30s only thanks to the conversion to aircraft engine production. Accordingly, Alfa-powered aircraft hav...
