Hi Adrian,
Re the furore over the Trax models, not having seen or purchased one, may I put in my two cents worth.
Having noted the several e-mails and comments on the Trax model it was not suprising that the model Morris Minor two door convertibles - one with hood up and the other with hood down and even two suitcases on the back seat - caught my attention.
On studying them I found the detail not great but quite satisfactory down to the wipers moulded in the screen in silver. Paint finish was glossy and colours looked good. I then found that if you put them on the floor and pulled them backwards a couple of inches and released them, they would charge off under power from a simple spring motor.
Where were they made? Why China of course!
And the price? A whopping $9.95 each at our local service station!
Cheers,
Baz,
