    Cheap Jag E Type

    Pity this wasn't 1/24 scale or I would have bought one, but at 1/32 it's too small. I like to keep to 1/24 or larger. Good buy for a fiver though.

    I agree. Way too tiny.

        I've built one, the parts fit was awful but it did scrub up well in the end

          I've built three, and have another three in my stash.


          A brilliant little model for hacking into different versions.


          I've made a Cunningham lightweigh, low-drag coupe and E2A.


          Yes it's small, but my advice, buy a few!!!


          (As per a different thread - I'm not 'highjacking' or posting a pointless pic - it's intended to show what can be done with this little cheap kit.)

            Yes I can see that it can be made into several versions and you have made a nice job of them, but they are just that bit too small, for my liking.

              I agree - bigger is better, but they are fun (and cheap) to bodgellate.


              Personally, I like 'em BIG.......
