Hi everyone,
It has been some time since I was last on here.
I've been busy setting up my own website:- motorcadeuk.net/
This is my collection of over 50,000 diecast vehicles i've gathered in 40+ years of collecting.
Mainly 1/64th scale (3-inch/8cm) cars, vans. But also includes other scales ranging from 1/36th (corgi), 1/43rd right down to 1/87th (ho/o scale) and trucks into the 1/100th+ region.
I opened the site at the end of February this year with just a couple of hundred vehicles, but this has increased by over 1000 to date & I will be adding 150 Chevrolet's this weekend.
If anyone is interested or has time to have a look, please feel free.
Any comments about the look of the site are welcome (good or bad) & i'd appreciate any help with any mistakes i've made with models/years/types etc...
Also a sections for vehicles 'Unknown' & unknown toy maker.
I've tried my best checking the net & looking up details here on the IMCDb, but there will always be errors, mis-prints, typo's etc...
Hope to see some of you visit.
All the best
Steve (IMCDb: stronghold)

Had a chance to have a look around the site. Very interesting and should be a good resource for model cars fans.

Nice work :smile:

Will investigate its depths - I'm much more 1-43, so it could be fun to see where we cross over. Gives me a chance to post this bit of music - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tilh0viq_wo . There was another song I was convinced had "motorcade" in the lyrics, but it was actually cavalcade - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XFDgBSk1ghM .

Hi dsl, I have an lp called 'Planning by Numbers' which has a song called 'Motorcade' which I like.
I Couldn't find it on you tube, but found this one by the same group/LP ..which is in a similar electronic/driving vein- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9lgVDwhSMsk

Hello Again,
I've just completed another 150 car update, this time TOYOTA.
Not had time to check info on many of them (guessed at the model years & many with No model identifications)
Didn't know whether to list trucks, pick-ups & suv's seperately?
Ended up with HiLux & other toyota pick-ups, all together. SUV's & trucks listed separately just under Toyota.
ATB
