Jouef's 1/40 scale E Types were perhaps the most beautiful cars they ever made.
The top down versions were sold between 1963 & 1969.
The hardtop version was sold between 1964 & 1971.
The light green & light blue cars pictured are very early examples with the oscillating motor fitted.
Some very rare liveries in this picture.
I`m really proud of them.
Cheers,
Kev.

10 years ago Kev, I didn't even know all these liveries existed!

Very nice collection there Kev, and I agree with you that the E Type was probably the nicest car Jouef made.

Do you have the same in Mercedes?

PS: and for the bonus question, do you know that the Americans called this model the XKE?

Thanks for the praise Sampson & Don!
I`m a thick head when it comes to real cars, so I wasn`t aware of that fact Don.
Here`s my Mercedes 300s.l. cars.
The two hard top versions are very rare. Especially the red one. It`s an Egger version from 1963, in new condition.
Cheers.

Hi Kev, nice E's. Who's your dealer?

For me the silver one is the pick of the bunch.
Cheers,

Thanks Richard & FZ.
I received the Jouef Go-Kart today. That was the last original type I was looking for from Jouef. You can see them all in the 1/43 section.
I need more colour variations now.
Cheers,
Kev

Edit...just got your joke Richard...I`m getting too old!

Gorgeous cars Kev. Baby blue and the lidded white one would be my pick.

A little surprised to see no Silver in the Mercs.

Lucky boy
