I have had these since the early 70s, stored in my closet, took 'em out for a photo shoot today with 60s tin "HTC" brand Jenny as a backdrop.

Nothing too rare here, just average. Most still have the window boxes as well. Lesney discontinued the range in the period 70-72 but old stock remained plentiful in retail stores and hobby shops.

This last car starred in a 50s movie named "Genevieve." I saw a real Spyker (2006 model) "D12 Peking Paris" at the NYC auto show last Saturday. The price starts at over $280,000!

I like these pics a lot!!!
