Last weekend I got these in a trade.
Hope you enjoy them!

The Cooper I had for a few years and have been looking for the Lotus as I think of these as a pair :rolleyes:

And the Cooper that came before (Now I need to find the earlier Lotus as well - There is no end to the "collecting-craze" :freak:)

Those are really cool. What scale are they? Do they make the Lotus 25 like Jimmy Clark drove in the early '60's? Or what about a Surtees Ferrari ? Oooo! Didn't mean to bring that up for thought. :p

Scale are 1:43.
Yes, Corgi made a wonderfull Lotus as driven by Clark! Not that rare, but I still miss that one :rolleyes:
I have a few of the mid 70s 1:36 F1 cars, also from Corgi:
Surtees T.S.9 (blue) and a Surtees T.S.9B (red):
