BBR kits BBP285 Ferrari 550 Millenio Force One FIAGT review p6 We know from previous issues using the basic parts in these kits that they build extremely well. The performance of the subject didn’t live up to the great livery but it makes an excellent modelling subject. The Le Mans and Sebring versions are just as well made, it’s just that this livery is, to us, visually so much more exciting.

Provence Moulage kit PM2768 WR Autoexe Le Mans 2002 review p3 Liveries don’t come much more vivid than this one. It’s not totally spot on, but still looks absolutely spectacular when finished. If a driving force for your collection is how the vehicle is decorated, then this is a definite must have.


Piranha Models kit RUP010 Aston Martin V12 Vanquish 2001 - review p1 This may not be as colourful as the other subjects on this page, but there is no doubting that the Vanquish makes a great modelling subject. The kit is very well cast, with good detail and we know it goes together well, because our studio have already built some.

Portal 43 kit POR014 Subaru Impreza WRC Sanremo 1999 - review p2 Based on Racing 43’s excellent parts, so we know this will build well, Climent’s Sanremo ride is one of the most attractive liveries we think we’ve ever seen.

Model Factory Hiro 1:20 kit HIR021 Renault RS01 1978 - review p8 Finely turned aluminium wheels and exhaust tips may be fairly common in kits these days, but only Hiro supply us with precision machined aluminium body tubs as basis for the incredible amount of white metal and p/e detail offered. This very high detail kit will keep even the most enthusiastic modeller out of mischief for many happy hours.
