Well done Jules, looks like your eye for detail and accuracy has paid off. Perhaps as a special offer for the first 100 Dodge cars sold you could also include the little Beetle and put it in the boot. Its big enough. biggrin.gif wink.gif

cheers

Just speaking from experience, if anyone from the UK is considering ordering from a website where the product is shipped from China they ought to be aware that if the product gets held up by customs and the Royal Mail there will be an £8 handling charge plus the VAT of 15% added to the declared value of the item.

So what was a £32 item immediately will cost almost £45!!

Personally I would rather purchase from a UK based supplier who can give me a guaranteed price with UK shipment and whom I have some redress against if the product is faulty or arrives damaged, its a long way from China for a plastic car!

Having said this I think the Dodge and the Mustang both look absolutely brilliant and wish Pioneer the best of luck, I am certainly interested.

Good luck Pioneer, your first two cars are pretty popular choices and at a retail price less than the current crop of Scalextric and SCX cars I hope you sell them by the container full.

Looking forward to seeing the website when it is up and running and any future proposed releases.

This items are not being shipped from China directly to the consumer.

They are being shipped in bulk to distribution hubs in the UK, Spain, USA and Australia and then posted on to the clients.

Just to clear up the shipping/posting issue......

These models will NOT be shipped direct from China to buyers. They will ship from the factory to 4 distribution hubs, USA, UK, Australia & Spain. The buyer will be send their order from the nearest hub. So order from NZ, get it from Australia, order from UK and it's posted from UK etc.

I hope explains it.

Thanks,


Jules

Finally a charger to run against those pesky camaros and mustangs. I am curious is there any specs available regarding weight length width wheelbase axle to guide length etc. Are they running on a seperate chassis from each other? Very happy to see these. I will reserve judgement till I see them in the flesh but the pics look nice.

Trust me its not a scaly. Cusomer satisfaction will be very high on the agenda and will easily equal that given by Maurizio. smile.gif

I've just noticed little prototype Steve sitting in the Mustang! I wonder if he will look as good painted?
I absolutely cant wait for these!
