Did they give it to you hoping it might help persuade you to buy a full size one?

I paid for it, I think it was like £10 or something.

I wasn't planning on selling it, I just wondered how many were around.

 

[Stugman]

I have the one issued with the James Bond film

 

[alfaitalia]

I like the one on the link....would like a red one like mine.....but £23.00 postage!!! Nope.....

I’ve got a Norev Alfa Spider in 8C red like this.

Is that 1/18 scale cue?

I also have the James Bond 159 1/43 model. It was given to me as a present, but was originally one of many in the James Bond Collection - a monthly subscription magazine that came with a model from the film's. I think I have about 8 of them - all Aston and Lotus apart from the 159. Good quality and within a diorama.

Yes it’s 1:18.

This is the James Bond 159 in 1/43 scale that I have (Google image).
It comes in its own display case:

I still need to get one of these (1/43 scale). Apart from the wheels, it's as close as I'll get to my own car.

Very nice....
I can imagine that was quite a few quids worth.....

 

[cue2]

I don’t remember but I would sell for the right price!

The Norev Spider model is on eBay.

 

[LiamBates]

It does look very nice. Just can’t understand why they chose to replicate the poverty spec alloys!

Same with the white 1/43 Minichamps Spider - they've gone for 18" 5-holes rather than 19" 10-spokes. Such a shame.

At least they’re the 18s! It’s the same on the Minichamps Brera, but in fairness they were the biggest wheels you could get at the time. It’s just a shame they didn’t do a Prodrive version!

Actually it’s just occurred to me that they have a 159ti that does come with those 10 spoke alloys:

At least the wheels are in black so you can’t see the size or design easily.
I had an Ebay message “Will you take any lower for this please??” within an hour of putting it on.
Shortly afterwards a bid for starting price. 6 days 9 hours to go now.

 

[LiamBates]

True, I’m sure they knew what they were doing picking that colour.

You have to laugh, seems good value as it is looking at a Brera version listed for £190.

I bought this from a dealer in around 2006 when the 159 was launched. So far I is the only 159 that I have owned, although I have come close on a couple of occasions to owning a full sized one.

Did anyone else manage to obtain one like this? They seem quite rare in the genuine Alfa box.

That's funny, I have your die-cast car but in real life. Same color and wheels.

I wished I could have had a Hot Wheels or Matchbox version of the 159 (the small ones, 1/64th scale I think?). Unfortunately they only have the Giulia.

The Spider is finishing on eBay just under 23 hrs from now. It’s reached £59.00 so far.
