We need a 6R4 (neither the old Scalextric nor Team Slot efforts count as they were so bad).
Same argument as above for a proper Manta Predictably, I'd like to see a Toyota Celica 1600GT, but expect a few of you will agree. -------------------- |

Well there are a lot of cars that were used for rallying at club level, such as the Hillman Imp and the Ford Anglia which, although available as resin models, need a lot of prepping to make them into rally cars. What I'd like to see are a range of auxilliary lights, Cibié, Marchal, Lucas, etc. so we can mod them into rally cars. Even the very successful Saab 96V4 has only been made as a resin model.

I am with you about the Nisan 240RS, in particular with the liveries for the East Africa rally.
Having said this I would also like to have the Datsun 240z

Yeah, I would instantly buy a 240Z, especially if it were produced by Fly.

A decent B series Manta would be good, the Team Slot one is resin which wouldn't last 5 minutes in my hands and the Sloter one doesn't look right, Carrera made one a few years ago, but I've never seen one, apart from that HS Chevette would be good, Revell to actually make the Ascona 400, MK2 and MK4 Astras would be good, that's a bit of a GMtastic list.
The Datsun 240Z was made in 1:64 by Tyco, TCR (not actually a slotcar) and I think Aurora, didn't Scalextric do one in 1:32, how much is an HRS chassis and some paint? -------------------- Manta Mad

OK;
Lets kick off with the MG 6R4 - lots of people have said they will make it, but none have actually done a decent job on it so far (Fly was the last to say they would, waiting for MSC). ![]() Another MG (in fact there are many) MGB in convertable (with hard top) Monte livery and GT versions; ![]() ![]() So many options available for this base car i still don't understand why it's not been made to date (Pioneer is soon, please give us a rally and GT version!). Volvo PV 544 in Monte and Safari versions; ![]() ![]() Triumph Dolomite ![]() ![]() Triumph TR7/8 ![]() Agree with the Datsun 240Z and the Nissan 240 plus some of the older Toyota. Most of the cars listed so far have been made already, but either in resin or back in the days when quality was not top of the list! -------------------- |

This could be a long list and some very nice cars already mentioned.
Highly unlikely any of the following would be made but cars from the 80s and early 90s like the Subaru Legacy, Mitsubishi Galant and Starion, the Citroen BX and the Porsche 924 Carrera GTR would all make interesting slot cars. -------------------- |

hi lancia delta intergrale hf.scaley were going to and prootypes were made and never went into production. I to would love to see a 6R4 and a Lotus Sunbeam. SCX have both the Sunbeam Lotus and Lancia Delta HF Integrale. I would like to see some old Volvo's and Saab's, but I really miss a early Porsche 911 without the RS flares. The Fly 911 is great but I'd really like a non-flared body for the early rally cars (pre 70'). |
