World's Oldest Surviving Rolls-Royce

The world's oldest surviving Rolls-Royce is a star in the automobile enthusiasts' firmament. Built in 1904, car 20154, a small 10 horsepower open-topped two-seater, is only the fourth vehicle produced by the landmark cooperation between Charles Rolls and Henry Royce and the oldest one still running.

 

The car - licence plate U 44 - was first exhibited at The Paris Salon in the late Autumn of 1904 before passing through several owners, and now being further immortalized in handmade model form.

Spot-On Daimler SP250 DartProduced in Tri-Ang's Belfast factory, Spot-On was the company's entry into the diecast market. Launched in 1959, the range was notable for its consistent scaling (all the models; cars, buses, commercial vehicles and everything else were made to 1/42 scale) and unusual model choices. Less successful than some of its rivals when new and abandoned by Tri-Ang when they acquired Dinky, Spot-On's products are highly sought-after by collectors today today.

Zee Toys DeLorean

 

With its gullwing doors and stainless-steel finish, the Delorean made quite a splash on its launch in the 80's, becoming an iconic symbol of the decade. But surprisngly, few diecast companies seemed to take note at the time, with the Corgi Juniors version not making it past the prototype stage and Hot Wheels' version eventually redesigned into a generic. Zee Toys, however, made a fantastic model of the car, complete with opening doors!
