Ahh, I love "spot the mistake" competitions :grins:

The instrument cluster looks a bit odd. OK, what are the mistakes? :grins:

Scirocco - It´s more than just a car!
It´s handcrafted, german engineering!

The emblems are too deep! Those must be definitely higher!
That was probably made by hand --> human failure

At this weekend's Classic Car Show there were quite a few traders selling these models, didn't buy one :peinlich: because I want my parents to give me one for Xmas, and they might as well buy it on-site in Germany, so to speak :grins:

Looking at both colours, I was a wee bit disappointed with the orange/red one, as I had expected it to be a deeper red. The mistake I immediately spotted on the orange/red one was the same mistake as on all recent 1/18-scale Corrado models by Revell: Chrome bump strips along the doors :erschrecken: !!!

Will be getting myself the silver one.

Probably the red only looks faded due to the flash.
Nope, I have seen this model with my own very eyes, which although they can look piercing, they lack a built-in flash :hihi:
there were chrome strips as an option the early Mk1 Sciroccos
so that is no mistake.
Indeed an option, not standard. Still doesn't look right somehow :grins:

I'll ignore the other comment :grins: Happines is plastic, or something like that :hihi:

Anyway, if the chrome bumpstrips are not a mistake, what are the mistakes in the Revell models then? :grins:
selling his Twilight Zone on Saturday
WHAT???????

You can't do that! I haven't even had a chance to testplay the refurbished version :-( There's a penalty and points for doing this you know :hihi:

Let it be a Porsche older than the 997 because of the massive construction problems the 997 has to cope with. ;-)

That all went a bit quickly, I must say.

Fortunately I don't get bored enough with stuff that I have done amounts of work to as to want to sell the relevant item. Hence I will be hanging on to my yoghurt cup (aka Mk1 Rocco :grins: ) like a leech to a wound :hihi:

For the record: Porsches are for old gits. This is actually true: You look at the average Porsche driver, all old guys who are still trying to live some youth dream. it just LOOKS so wrong! The only younger Porsche drivers are usually snobs/yuppies/everything else contrary to the typical Rocco-driver :grins:
