A nice little video for men of a certain age, some of us never grew out of our model cars, I'm 64 going on 12 and I still collect them. The good thing about the reproductions including the Atlas Dinky's they capture the spirit of the original toys without the huge collector prices of the original on the second hand and dealer market. I know opinion is divided regarding this reproductions but I like them and I still have some of the originals, its interesting to see the minor differences in the casts, the cast are different, lets hope the keep up the standards and maybe introduce some Corgi Major's at some stage.
@@JulesBurt Hi Jules. You might like some of my Corgi's Dinky's Hornby and Airfix. Take a look at my old videos on ourmanroy my TH-cam channel. Best Regards Roy
Your getting a good collection going there Jules. Love the little cars. I remember when Hot Wheels came out and all us boys had to get as many as possible. Had some pretty good memories from back in the day. No old Hot Wheels though. 😂 Much Love to the Burt family.
When I was 10 I zoomed that Porsche in the School playground. WhizzWheels! It disappeared into obscurity. 50 years later I somehow acquired one exactly the same, the red bonneted/bottomed one with the blue engine cover. It's the only Corgi car I own. But it is enough!
The Saint's Volvo is the "Cow-Horn" bumper model, with the body made by Pressed Steel in Cowley and assembled by Jensen Motors in West Bromwich. Volvo weren't happy with the quality and moved production to Sweden for later models.
Love your videos Jules! This one had the music going up and down in volume in a distracting way, in my opinion. (Just a bit of constructive feedback). Thank you for all your videos!
Great video. I think the Saint sticker is actually quite authentic to the original one. Cheers, Paul.
I'm sure it is now having compared it to an original 🙂
Thanks. What cool cars. Looking forward to see Bonds's Austin Martin and the jag from the ' Equalizer '
The Aston Martin is in its way, the Jag would be cool! 👍🙂
I still have the original Volvo Saint’s car The P1800 the white Volvo.
Lovely, great car that👍
Brilliant!!!!

Excellent Paul. I'm a bit behind, must give them a call to catch up a bit👍

Thanks Alvin, you too mate👍🙂 I had a few hot wheels but they were mainly matchbox cars back then.

Yep, it ended up a touch too loud, agreed. Sorry about that.
Volvo such a pretty car, last year I raced against one in a Vintage race, sadly it was miserably slow lol, but such a beautiful car. Awesome vid!
Thanks Chris! I would love to see a vintage one in the flesh. Was the one you raced against in good condition?
@@JulesBurt it was mint..
Awesome 👍

At present, yes. Not sure if they are going to open it up worldwide. Best check the Facebook group.
