JADA : 1:24 die cast scale Golf GTI Black

[john_o]

Why

As we all know a 'true' enthusiast can never have enough models.....




Sourcing

My local Tesco for the princely sum of £9.00 ! BARGAIN
Some can be found on ebay for quite a bit more
All other colours ARE available but I've only seen them listed on US websites, in the uk it seems 'the fastest colour' centric i.e. BLACK

Have a look at the link below, you can also get the same model with deep dish wheels

>>> JADA website ALL GOLF GTI's <<<<


Fitting

Remove from the box and you are ready to enjoy.
Some tasteful modifications can be your choice e.g. Add you own numberplate
Only your own sadness enthusiasm holds you back

Plus Points

Its not going to take away from your mods budget, its at a wife/partner easy to declare price point 
Its a mk5 GTI  need I say more ?

Minus Points

The american spec with side reflectors/chrome wheels arent quite right,
but then Ive not really found a better Edition30 model either.
Your partner/flatmate/friends may frown heavily on another 'sad' model 

Other Info


Other mods to  consider

Lots of other models available at different scales Norev etc.
You could even build your own from kit for true authenticity

Summary

Great Xmas pressy or an inexpensive treat to yourself during the weekly shop.
As close as I can get to my car car so far without spending ££££

You know it makes sense

I saw these a while back on Amazon. Even posted a thread at the other place about it.

clicky

But neither of the cars in that link had side reflectors. Got shot down too.

Where in tescys did ya see it? Might pop down tomorrow.

Remove from the box and you are ready to enjoy.

Okay this may sound retarded but how to you remove it from the yellow bit with the "2007 Volkswagen Golf MK5 GTI" bit on it and how do you remove it from the stand?

Brute force is gonna break the thing!

[john_o]

lol, you need to undo the 2 phillips (cross headed) screws that go through the packaging from bottom into the GTI

You pleased ?

I want a white one (GTI, not ED30), but can't find one anywhere!!!! I may even have to resort to buying a silver one and spraying it myself!
