We are
unable to shed any light on the results of the kit subjects offered
here but can tell you all have colourful liveries and look to be accurate.
The Clio has the body cast in resin with the ancillary parts a combination
of white metal and p/e. The subject is the attractive dark blue Meri
Kits sponsored car from the Bormida round of the Italian championship
driven by David Riva (the Ri of Riva being the ri of Meri!). The Fiat
124 uses Meri¯s excellent metal kit to model the fabulous looking
blue and orange Gulf liveried car of Parrini and de Tofoli form the
1977 Elba rally. These colours have been seen in many areas of motorsport
but we don¯t recall seeing them on a rally car before. The Puntos
all use PM¯s fine resin body and base plate with Meri produced white
metal ancillaries and clearly printed decals. Each kit includes colour
laser copies showing the full sized car and will build to make a colourful
collection. Hopefully we will be able to show some colour photos elsewhere
in this edition. The built McLarens have good paint finishes and well
applied decals but on our review samples we could see daylight between
the upper and lower body-work, behind the front suspension! Providing
that we can get the camera to work, photos of the two hand-built models
should appear in our colour pages.

All of these subjects are from Italian events and will make interesting
alternatives to the usual plastic kits. Drivers for the 1999 Beta
Subaru include F1 driver Jean Alesi and GP bike racer Loris Capirossi.

The first two here
are superb metal kits capturing the subtle race by race differences
with great accuracy. Some may consider modelling what seems to be
every version of this year’s Ferrari as somewhat excessive, but
we have no doubt enough people do want them or BBR wouldn’t bother!
|
 |
| The long
awaited yellow and black Michelotti roadster is brilliantly finished.
Our review sample has a slightly crooked rear license plate but is
otherwise spotless. A superb model of a very unusual and attractive
subject. Please note we have only received a review sample of this
model and we know many of you have placed advanced orders which will
be filled as soon as stock arrives. |
