I found this new Matchbox car transporter today and it gave me an idea of a then and now photo shoot. First the then:

First I've seen of that new one, looks good. I think that top rack could be a little lower though.
Nice pics!

I havent seen this new one yet either:thumbsup:

Here is the grand-daddy of plankowner´s pair.All of these toys have been driving around looking for a GM dealership for almost 50 years now which explains their well enjoyed appearance:wave: The Bedford Tractor was designed by GM´s UK truck maker and the loaded Vauxhall Crestas were made by GM´s leading UK car brand.

Nice Grand Dad! The newer one I have pictured is part of the new Super Convoy series. I found a couple of them at TRU yesterday. They are nowhere near the quality construction of the older one(s) but are nice enough just the same. I do agree with the comment that the top coud be a tad lower. I think it was designed this way to accommodate taller MB's from today's line up.

Looking good for sure!!!!!!!!!

Awesome!!!!!!!

The trailer on the new hauler overshadows the cab, making the cab look too small. It looks like the trailer accomodates 1:64 scale cars just fine, but the cab looks more like 1:87 scale. (only judging by the pic posted)
