thank you very much...this is probally the best place for me to go to find out exactly what versions of such f1 1.43 models exist....is it free to visit(asking when probally not going ) and is there the entire collection ever made because i cant seem to find a decent website with loads of pics of f1 models in there boxes so i can see which ones are the gold earlier models compared to the newer editions...and how many btcc models do they have on show?

The entry fee is 5 Euros, but currently the museum is only open on Friday afternoons. It would still be a good idea to check if it is going to be open if you are making a special visit to Aachen to see the museum though. I'm not sure that EVERY 1:43 F1 model ever was on display! I did notice the 1994 Alfa Romeo 155s and Volvo 850 Estates from the 1994 BTCC!

Thats a Ferrari 412T2 from 95 not a T1, i'm actually more nerdy than you!!

I am a huge fan if down scale replica cars. the attention to detail is unbelievable. I bought one a Ferrari F50, and it cost me $350

[radu197666]

ebay dude...about 100$ shipped, 1/18 scale :)

[rstrobel]

another doubt... there they sell any model ??

[kubicapanis]

thanks for getting back.....im not planning on going to germany any time soon so going just for the museum is going to be most unlikely. it still seems like the best place though and im sure one day i might visit ..just have to watch your vid again and again for now :D<<but thats exactly what i wanted to know when i found this vid..there is a museum for minichamps :P

and yay...rock on the btcc ...

btw..the huge ligeir...any pics of it at all???
