I'm hoping to collect one each of all the factory cars from the best WRC years - 1997-2010. I've put a lot of research into this, and I've even gone so far as only going for cars where I don't already have one with the same number (but that's another story).

There's one car I'm having trouble finding....... The Suzuki SX4 WRC from 2007/8. Has any of the major slot manufacturers done one in 1/32? I've found them in CarreraGo, but that's 1/43, isn't it?
......And, of course, SCX do the Swift - but that's JWRC.

Cheers
Stuart.

Stop searching, no one did the Suzuki WRC.

I'd guessed as much, when I couldn't find anything other than the Carrera ones. I can't honestly say I'm surprised, though. Shame, as by the time I'm finished it'll be the only one missing from my collection of pre-S2000 WRC cars.

I guess it's a lack of results and liveries.

One company pushing hard in rally cars has always been SCX because the Spaniards are very fond of rally and Spain is their most important market, but then we all know that the situation is very difficult in Spain.

Yes it's a shame there is no SX4 in 1;32.

The Carrera 1;43rd car is a cracker;

The closest (but no where near) in 1;32 is this;

Mini Replicas Suzuki Ignis S1600 from the Monte 2004 - Guy Wilks.

The SCX Swift - is superb;

Me too. Oh well, the chances are that I'll be more than the one car short of my target, anyway - some of them are already getting hard to find.
I've got half of my list now, so I suppose any improvement on that is a bonus.

I'm not really helping myself by avoiding duplicate competition numbers.

Which other ones are you struggling with?

Ford Focus WRC'06 - Ninco 50439 no.3
Ford Focus - Scalextric C2489 no.4
Peugeot 307 WRC - SCX 64510 no.5
Subaru Impreza WRC'06 - SCX A10050 no.7

That leaves the Escort WRC and Lancer WRC which I haven't found yet, and the SX4 WRC which isn't made.

I'm having the same problem with the Suzuki!

I'm planing to modify a Avant Slot Subaru in to the Suzuki. My colection starts with the 1999 Mitsubishi, with it's a group A not a WRC, and go's to 2010, Carpena decals with a SCX C4 WRC (still not redecorated) and a Team Slot Ford Escort WRC (still not redecorated).

Here's a picture of my collection (sorry for the quality, it's taken with a cell phone).

My Mitsi is a 1998 livery. Although it's technically GroupA I included it because it won the championship outright - that's good enough for me.
I've also got a couple of late '90s F2 Rally cars - a Megane and an Ibiza - but I won't be buying any more.

Nice looking collection.

I'll have to post a picture of mine.......

The three at the back - Ibiza, Impreza and Megane - are magnet cars I use as pacers for the "non-mag" cars.

The two Escorts, the Sunbeam and the quattro will be getting their spotlamps back when I get my rally track up-and-running.
