Oxford Diecast JCB 3CX Eco Backhoe Loader JCB (1:76)

JCB 3CX Eco Backhoe Loader JCB (1:76) JCB promote the JCB 3CX Loader as the world's leading backhoe loader behind their JCB 4CX. They boast it as the product of their efficient design philosophy responding to rising fuel prices and environmental concerns. Their innovative technologies have developed a vehicle with class-leading efficiency and low running costs. As they say themselves - squeezing the absolute maximum out of every drop of fuel! As a result, in typical roading, loading, excavating and idle cycles, the 3CX JCB backhoe loader, equipped with a powerful Ecomax engine, delivers an average fuel saving of up to 16%, plus lower emissions and noise levels. As well as the environmental benefits, the JCB 3CX features a brand new engine, more torque than rival vehicles, new electronic engine management system and new powerslide for faster, easier repositioning. The detailed components of the 'real thing' are realistically produced on our Oxford model which appears in the JCB corporate yellow and black colour scheme. The forward body, lifting arms and wheel centres are all yellow with cab, chassis, buckets and interior appearing in black. A flash of colour sees the side piston tubes painted red alongside silver exhaust pipes and headlights. Rounding off this finely engineered vehicle, we see the JCB and 3CX logos printed boldly on the body lifting arms. Let's get digging!

Oxford Diecast Ford Cortina Mk5 - Cosmos Blue (1:76)

Ford Cortina Mk5 - Cosmos Blue (1:76) Our model represents the last in the Ford of Great Britain Cortina series in real life, which dominated the British road scene from the early 1960s to the early 1980s. Ford launched the Mk 5 - an upgraded Mk IV - in August 1979. Marketed as a medium sized family car with prices starting at £3,475, the visible differences included revised headlights incorporating larger indicators, a slatted front grille, a flattened roof, slimmer C-pillars and revised vent cover.  The interior also benefited from detailed changes, including the dashboard and centre console. Improvements were also made to the engine range resulting in better fuel economy and power output. The 2.3-litre V6 engine was given electronic ignition and a slight boost in power output to 116 bhp, compared with the 108 bhp Mark IV. Ford also added improved corrosion protection on Mark V models, which is probably why more have survived. Our 1:76 scale vehicle tooling incorporates the upgraded external features of the real car and is registered FOL 414V from 1979. It is decorated in bright blue with black roof, pillars and window surrounds.  The black finish also extends to the side sills and radiator grille.  The interior is moulded in a rich brown with black trim while a final exterior detail sees the 1.6 GL  printed in silver on the boot lid. Grand Luxury indeed.

Oxford Diecast Ford Anglia - Monaco Red (1:76)

Ford Anglia - Monaco Red (1:76) The Ford Motor Company introduced their fourth generation of the Anglia name, the 105E, in 1959 characterised by its unique backward slanting rear window. When it ceased manufacture in 1967, over 1 million cars had rolled off its Dagenham production line.  It came in various body options and our Oxford’s two-door saloon version is based on what Ford described as a small family car.  It sported a 997 cc engine and was capable of a top speed of 73.8 mph, accelerating from 0-60 in 26.9 seconds. With fuel consumption of 41 miles per gallon, it cost £610 on the road. Here we see this model dressed in a vibrant red colour scheme with a smart white flash along the sides. The interior seating, dashboard and steering wheel are also red. Registered HJN 662D, our model dates back to 1966. A silver trim to the wheels, grille and bumpers also includes a final flourish with the Ford Anglia ‘Deluxe’ signature across the boot.

Oxford Diecast Bedford CF Van - Eastern Gas (1:76)

Bedford CF Van - Eastern Gas (1:76) The Bedford CF small commercial van was first introduced by Bedford - in 1969. It succeeded the  Bedford CA van and was seen as a competitor to rival Ford’s Transit van. It was the last vehicle to be designed solely by Vauxhall and was one of the most popular light commercials of the day due its versatility, which included it being a template for a caravanette, notably the Bedford Dormobile. With longitudinal front engine and rear wheel drive and transmission of 2/4/5 manual to a 3-speed General Moors automatic, the CF Van was given a facelift in 1980, which introduced a 2.3L diesel engine as an alternative to the petrol engine. Our very useful CF Van makes its latest entrance in a 1980s Gas livery, this time as used by the utility company’s Eastern branch. With a white body and royal blue roof and white bonnet, the model has been masked along the sides and rear with royal blue, light blue and aquamarine stripes. The bumpers are also white and the Eastern Gas logo features in white on the cab and rear doors.  Our Gas van is registered MMJ 153P from 1975.

Oxford Diecast Austin Mini - Speedwell Blue (1:76)

Austin Mini - Speedwell Blue (1:76) The much loved and great classic Austin Mini has been a motoring icon since it was launched in 1959.  This British car, designed by Alec Issigonis and his talented team, set the benchmark and definitely the trend for nippy vehicles ideally suited for towns and cities, where its versatility and ability to park in small spaces made it a must for ordinary young and old to rich and famous motorists alike. Our 1:76 scale miniature comes decorated in pale blue with white roof with an early registration plate – 285 JYB. The interior and the seats are moulded in mid grey with a black steering wheel. The exterior trim is silver including the bumpers, window surrounds and wipers while the radiator grille is silver and black. The colourful Austin badge sits centrally on the edge of the bonnet and the trim is rounded off by the Austin Seven signature across the boot.

Oxford Diecast Austin Mini Cooper - White Union Jack (1:76)

Austin Mini Cooper - White Union Jack (1:76) This is so patriotic! Making a superb addition to our Classic Austin Mini series, it sports a brilliant white paint job with the Union Flag covering the roof, all topped off with some gleaming chrome work. Registered LCD 21B, the interior is moulded in a contrasting dark red.

Oxford Diecast Austin Maestro - London Fire Brigade (1:76)

Austin Maestro - London Fire Brigade (1:76) Introduced in 1983, the Maestro was a 5-door family hatchback, produced by British Leyland at their Morris Cowley works. It had a 5-speed manual gearbox and a basic 1.3L engine rising to 1.6L on later models. It incorporated many innovative features for its time. It had a bonded laminated windscreen, homofocal headlights, body-coloured plastic bumpers, an electronic engine management system, adjustable front seat belt anchorage positions, an asymmetrically split rear seat and a 12.000 mile service interval. Here we see it in a commercial role, as a support vehicle for the London Fire Brigade, registered B576 WYO from 1984. Looking at the signature badge on the back, the Brigade chose the top of the range 1.6L which was probably necessary given its purpose. The bright red body colour is in sharp contrast to the black trim, while the wheels are silver with black dots.  The interior seating is mid grey.  The Maestro has an alphanumeric ID -  C435 printed in front of the front wheel arch and London Fire Brigade along the edge of the bonnet and across the boot. The highly colourful London Fire Brigade crest with London Fire Brigade GLC lettering beneath is printed on both the front doors.

Oxford Diecast Austin 1300 GT - Aqua (1:76)

Austin 1300 GT - Aqua (1:76) BMC unveiled the front engine, front-wheel drive Austin/Morris 1300 GT at the London Motor Show in 1969. Designed by the legendary Alec Issigonis, key features included a 1275 cc twin carburettor engine, a black full width grille, black vinyl roof and a thick black metal strip along the side, all designed to convey a sporty image. In 1971 the Mark III version appeared, lasting in production until 1974 when the range was superseded by the Austin Allegro and the Vanden Plas 1500. A popular model in our Oxford 1:76 series, this colour scheme on the Austin 1300 GT is a delightful watery shade of blue with black roof and lots of silver masking. Registered RVB 740L from 1972, our 1:76 scale replica sports a steel blue interior with black dashboard and steering wheel. Further details include the Austin name is printed at the top of the black and silver radiator grille, with its GT status is printed in red on the grille and also behind the rear side windows. The boot lid carries the 1300 GT marque to the right of the rear registration plate.

Oxford Diecast Mercedes Whitby Mondial Ice Cream Van Tonibell (1:76)

Mercedes Whitby Mondial Ice Cream Van Tonibell You’ve been treated to this exact same model in 1:43 scale; this issue reveals it joining the 1:148 series too; and now it appears again, especially for 1:76 scale ice cream van followers. It is such a delightful and eye-catching vehicle which is as irresistible as the ice cream!  The frothy bright pink body with black trim is just covered with a mass of pastel shades including the signature Tonibell cow, with her famous bell collar, as she appears on all sides of the van.  Ice cream cones top the front of the roof and the side hatch promotes all the delicious varieties on offer. The Whitby Company set up business in 1962 and acquired the Morrison Industries Electrofreeze company in 1989, to be morphed into Whitby Morrison Mondial. Their worldwide market in ice cream vans spans over 50 countries, all from their Cheshire base, which is still family owned. The sight and sound of an ice cream van always heralds the UK summer and the latest introduction is a sure sign of the season to come! - OO/1:76 Scale

Oxford Diecast Leyland TLM Liverpool Fire Brigade (1:76)

Leyland TLM Liverpool Fire Brigade The Leyland TLM fire engine was introduced in the 1930s and was noted for its reliability, being in use throughout WWII and long after production ceased.  Its special features included an inline six petrol engine and usually a 100ft turntable ladder configuration by either Merryweather or the German company Merz. Liverpool in particular favoured the TLM and here we see it registered EKA 342 as it served with the City’s Fire Brigade. You may recall that the previous Oxford TLM release featured a closed cab which was highly unusual but here we are back to the more familiar completely open vehicle. With bright red body and wheels, the bonnet is masked black, the ladders are silver and the interior components black.  Additional trim is silver including the coach lines along the body, the radiator grille surround and the starting handle. Much used in urban areas, especially during the War, we can imagine it served a city like Liverpool extremely well during those dark times. A proper hero! - OO/1:76 Scale

Oxford Diecast Ford Transit Beavertail Recovery 24hr Recovery (1:76)

Ford Transit Beavertail Recovery 24hr Recovery The Ford Motor Company introduced the Ford Transit commercial ‘family’ of vehicles in 1965.  And the brand is still going strong today, having evolved physically and mechanically along the way with numerous configurations and uses.  The Transit name itself has become a generic term for small commercial vehicles and here at Oxford Diecast, we have kept up with all the changes to shapes and uses along the way. Our latest introduction is the simple Ford Transit recovery/breakdown version which features a two-door Ford Transit cab and long trailer, designed especially for rescuing vehicles from the roadside It is registered FCR 238L from  1971 so it is quite early in the Ford Transit’s evolution.  Painted completely in white, the graphics clearly state in red and orange its 24 hour recovery facility. The exterior trim is black apart from the platform which is silver. The interior is also black. An additional tooling modification comprises a pyramid style roof box with an orange beacon above the cab. Add your own 1:76 scale ‘rescued’ vehicle to the platform for added realism. - OO/1:76 Scale

Oxford Diecast Burrell Scenic Showmans Loco Winston Churchill (1:76)

Burrell Scenic Showmans Loco Winston Churchill As countrywide fairs and steam rallies roll in for the summer season, it is a wonderful opportunity to take another trip down memory lane with Oxford’s Showmans series. Our new release on the Burrell Scenic Loco is absolutely splendid too. The colourful steam locomotive started its real life in 1922, commissioned by Holland Bros. It was designed with a longer boiler and an electric dynamo, especially for powering fairground use. It was delivered to them to power Albert Holland’s Peacock and Dragon Scenic Ride. The locomotive was originally named Prince Albert which was changed in preservation to Winston Churchill. Around 1952, the late Eric Middleton bought the locomotive directly from the Hollands in Swadlincote, Derbyshire for about £250. Having lain derelict and abandoned for some years, the locomotive was in very bad condition. However, Eric restored the engine completely and sold it to the Hardwick family who rallied it extensively in the 1980s. It is now owned by the Marchington family.  The 1:76 scale model appears in crimson with a white roof and black masking. Dropped shadow lettering along the edge of the roof promote the Holland’s Golden Dragons; the Winston Churchill nameplate features in gold and red on the locomotive side.  Also in red and gold, the front of the boiler carries the customary C Burrell & Sons Engineers Ltd name and The “Burrell Road Locomotive” lettering. It is estimated that each of the Oxford Showmans series models requires at least 100 printing operations and it is easy to see why.  There is illustrious decoration and colour throughout, resulting in another desirable steam locomotive to light up your fairground diorama. - OO/1:76 Scale

Oxford Diecast Bedford CF Hanlon Ambulance Merseyside Ambulance Service (1:76)

Bedford CF Hanlon Ambulance Merseyside Ambulance Service The Bedford CF was a range of full size commercial vans produced by Bedford, the commercial division of Vauxhall, between 1969 and 1986, when it represented the last vehicle produced solely by Vauxhall. It was a very versatile model – a competitor to the Ford Transit – and was adapted widely due to its space and reliability. It was a particular favourite when configured as an ambulance with conversions being undertaken by specialised coach builders, including the Irish company Hanlon.  Such ambulances had coachbuilt bodies to accommodate the necessary headroom and interior capacity for patients and equipment. The Oxford Diecast Bedford CF Hanlon Ambulance is registered B575 LKA, the year in which the CF featured modernised engines and transmission options. Our 1:76 scale replica is based on the vehicle used by the Merseyside Metropolitan Ambulance Service and appears in white with the red Day-Glo stripe running round the sides and across the rear doors. Black printing on the cab doors indicates the ambulance served Stockport and further exterior trim is finished in black or chrome while additional detail to the front radiator grille sees two blue lights between the chrome headlights.  The roof also has an air horn/siren painted red and two blue roof beacons. The side and rear windows have a blacked out effect surrounded by chrome.  And - on this model - note the single wheels on the rear chassis. - OO/1:76 Scale

Oxford Diecast VW T1 Samba Bus Yellow/White (1:76)

VW T1 Samba Bus Yellow/White The VW T1 Samba Bus, with its split windscreen and a wide variety of two-tone colour schemes, is a firm favourite amongst collectors and this bright variation will undoubtedly continue the trend. In real life, it was the top of the range in luxury and style, based on the original first generation VW T1 of 1951. Decorated with a bright yellow body and matching wheels, the upper body is painted white including the roof, which incorporates a grey-beige roof panel, replicating the canvas original. The interior is moulded in light cream, including the seats and steering wheel while the dashboard is finished in a rich brown. Exterior trim is chrome and black and the deep white V, trimmed with chrome at the front, also features the VW logo in the centre. Our Samba Bus is registered YFR 278. This model stirs up memories of firing up that distinctive purring engine and taking to the road with family and everything on board, including the pets! - 1:76 Scale

Oxford Diecast Sunbeam Rapier Mk.III Velvet Green/Sage Green (1:76)

Sunbeam Rapier Mk.III Velvet Green/Sage Green Modelled on the Sunbeam Rapier produced by the Rootes Group between 1955 and 1976, our Oxford 1:76 scale model is based on the two door Series III which was introduced in 1959. Improvements over its predecessors included modified side grilles, a re-styled number plate recess on the boot and a revised side flash with the Rapier logo towards the rear. Windscreen pillars were finer, increasing the windscreen area while inside, the seats and control panels were also upgraded.  Our 1:76 scale model appears featuring these refinements in another of the Rapier’s authentic bright two-tone colour schemes with a deep green body and pale green  masked roof, side flash and wheel inserts.  The interior seating is moulded in a soft muted green. The car is registered BYX 275. - 1:76 Scale

Oxford Diecast Ford Transit Mk.4 RAC (1:76)

Ford Transit Mk.4 RAC The Ford Transit Mk4 represented the 3rd generation of the vehicle in real life, spanning the years from 2000 to 2006.  This vehicle was different in that it had been designed in the USA and contained many cutting edge features; it came with automatic transmission; front or rear wheel drive; more cargo space and greater towing capacity. An option on rear wheel drive models included controls mounted on the dashboard, a specially adapted manual mode, tow-haul mode, economy mode and winter mode. All of these plus points would have made it an ideal vehicle for the RAC, whose key role is helping motorists in distress in all conditions and sometimes over difficult terrain. Our model is registered VE03 GGZ from 2003 and is decorated in the ultra modern bright orange with red and white chevron back with a blue and white panel promoting the RAC. To the sides and front, the printed information is in white against the orange ground, as well as a dark blue and white panel masked along the sides. A notable feature is the clever way in which the offside front wing chevron decals have been printed over the curved surface – it is absolutely flush!  The van interior is moulded completely black. A final tooling modification on this release sees the addition of a roof bar positioned right at the back of the roof – authentic down to the final detail! - 1:76 Scale

Oxford Diecast Austin-Morris J4 Van - Blue (1:76)

The Morris Commercial J4 van was a 10 cwt (0.5 ton) forward control van which Morris Commercial launched in 1960. It quickly became the ‘go to’ vehicle for deliveries due to its style and capacity. As a result it was a familiar sight on UK roads decorated in the likes of Royal Mail, British Rail, the Police as well as by smaller firms as a general utility vehicle. Painted in a rich blue with no livery at all and so the effect focuses the eye on its styling. The silver exterior trim takes in the distinctive radiator grille, above which the Austin badge is printed in red on silver.  BMC of which Austin was also part, interchanged the Austin and Morris marques by using different badges, radiator grilles etc, one of which carried through to the J van as seen on this model. Registered 2417 BP, this version has dark blue wheels to match the body colour while the interior is moulded in black with dark blue dashboard. The double doors at the back would have made loading and unloading easy and the two small back windows incorporate a glazed effect, adding even more realism. - 1:76 Scale

Oxford Diecast Austin Mini Metro - British School of Motoring (1:76)

Austin Mini Metro - British School of Motoring Oxford’s Austin Mini Metro adds a bit of variety to the mix with this latest BSM livery, a familiar sight on the 1980s roads. How many of we experienced drivers have had to exercise patience when behind one of these in its day? Learner drivers of the 1980s would have found the Austin Mini Metro a very easy car to test their ability. It came as a 3-door hatchback - the subject of our Oxford tooling – or a 5 door model. The engine size was either a 1.0L or 1.3L with a 4-speed manual gearbox. The Mini Metro had front wheel drive and a top speed of 84 mph and if you were practising three point turns, reversing round corners or parking, it was very compact and easy to park, so was a particular favourite. The livery is pure nostalgia! The bright red body colour has a wide blue and white flash along the sides incorporating an outline of the map of Great Britain with white BSM lettering beneath. The red roof features the BSM L Driver beacon while along the line of the boot is their famous slogan Every SEVEN minutes someone passes with BSM. The interior of the car is moulded in black and it is registered KWC 332Y from 1982. The British School of Motoring still exists today although now under the auspices of the Automobile Association, offering driving lessons and instructor training amongst other things. - 1:76 Scale

The 1:76 scale Hillman Minx MkIIIA, painted in a very regal dark red and mid grey. It is registered YDU 799 and features silver external trim and white wall tyres. The interior dashboard and seating are moulded in a deep red with pale grey steering wheel. In real life, this classic British saloon car of the 1950s and 1960s was manufactured by the Rootes Group with their in-house designed Audax body, the upgraded MkIIIA appearing in 1959 as a slightly larger vehicle than its predecessors.  It came with both manual and automatic transmission with the automatic option comprising a Smiths Easidrive system -the first production dual-clutch type, which was to carry it right up to 1970. - 1:76 Scale

Oxford Diecast Bedford Ca Ice Cream Van Tonibell (1:76)

Previously modelled in 1:43 scale many ice cream years ago, we at Oxford are delighted to reintroduce our lovely Bedford CA Ice Cream van in the famous bright pink Tonibell livey, this time in the smaller 1:76 scale. The story of Tonibell ice cream goes back to 1937 when Italian born Tony Pignatelli and his Scottish wife founded an ice cream manufacturing business known as Toni’s in a high street shop in the Home Counties. They purchased their first mobile vehicle in 1951 – a bicycle with an ice cream container on the front. A year later they purchased a small van converted to sell ice cream complete with chimes!  Business expanded and changed hands many times over the years, including the name which became Tonibell. At its peak, Tonibell ran 500 vans and 15 ice cream parlours. Of course, the 1960s was also a peak time for the ubiquitous split windscreen CA Van, so this popular little vehicle was a prime choice as an ice cream van.  Here we see it in the bright pink colour scheme with side window hatch decorated with all the frozen delights on offer. The Tonibell cow, complete with cowbell, features all over the van, with the strap line ‘Tonibell dairy ice cream.’ Irresistible!   - 1:76 Scale

Oxford Diecast Land Rover Defender LWB St. Wagon - British Gas (1:76)

Land Rover Defender LWB St. Wagon - British Gas  Land Rover introduced the Defender in the early 1980s as a rugged, versatile four-wheel drive, all terrain vehicle which appeared as a car and also as a pickup truck. With cargo capacity for a wealth of equipment or baggage, the Defender could handle anything, which made it a great favourite in both military and civilian roles – many of which have preceded this latest release. Registered E203 PWR from 1987, our long wheel base version is decorated in the eye-catching livery of British Gas at that time.  Representing British Gas North Eastern, as depicted on the cab doors, the body is white with royal blue lower body and roof and featuring fine lighter blue/aquamarine stripes along the waist.  The roof is enhanced with a silver spotlight and an orange roof beacon, both essential in some British Gas operating conditions, no doubt. The interior is black and exterior trim features both black and silver finish.

The Ford Motor Company designed the Connect with a large cargo capacity, as well as incorporating improved aerodynamics for maximum fuel efficiency and high-tech lights for greater visibility.  Component parts were also designed for easy service and replacement. No wonder the Connect appealed to the RAC, whose equally modern livery we feature on this latest 1:76 scale edition. Decorated in the RAC signature orange and white colour scheme, the rear of our Connect carries the diagonal red and white highly visible paintwork, alerting motorists to its presence.  The white lettering on the sides and across the back promotes the RAC in-car services role.   External trim is black, as is the interior.  Our model, registered YR06 FMG, dates from 2006 when it was no doubt fulfilling its essential assistance to the nation’s motorists. - 1:76 Scale

Oxford Diecast Living Wagon Brown livery (1:76)

Living Wagon Brown livery The history of living wagons can be traced back to the Middle Ages, when nomadic peoples used them to travel from place to place. However, it was during the Victorian era that living wagons reached their peak of popularity. This was due in part to the rise of railroads, which made it easier for traveling people to transport their wagons over long distances. They were typically towed by horses or steam tractors, and were equipped with all the necessities of life, including kitchens, bedrooms, and sitting rooms. They offered a sense of freedom and independence. At a time when many people were tied to their homes and jobs, traveling people were able to roam the country freely and make their own living. Over time many were used by showmen as they travelled from fair to fair. - OO Scale

With a length of 3,400 mm and a width of 2,250 mm and boasting a spacious interior, it was particularly popular for use in the city too.  The price was pretty attractive as well. You could buy a new Austin Mini Metro  basic 1.0L model for £3,095. The Metro was revealed over a 3-week period in September 1980 but not at the British Motor Show, where it made its official public debut later.  British Leyland chose to sail from Liverpool to The Isle of Man aboard a cruise ship which proved highly newsworthy and attracted huge attention from prospective buyers from the car trade, who took advantage of this unique opportunity to view and buy the acclaimed vehicle. The Austin Mini Metro was popularised to a notable extent by one famous purchaser of the early version.  The 19 year old Lady Diana Spencer bought one at the time when she was attracting a great deal of attention prior to her marriage to the then Prince Charles.  Registered MPB 909W from 1980/81, it is Lady Diana’s Metro that Oxford has chosen to launch this new model.

However, it is a very rare sight today.

Western Scottish quickly became the largest bus operator in south west Scotland, with depots in Kilmarnock, Ayr, Cumnock, Girvan, Stranraer, Dumfries, Annan, Ardrossan, Carlisle, and Whithorn. The company operated a wide range of services, including local bus services, interurban connections, and cross-border journeys into north west England.

The company also operates a number of intercity and express services, connecting towns and cities across Scotland and England. The Alexander M Type was a single-deck coach built by Alexander Bus Builders in Falkirk, Scotland in the early 1970s.

The M Type was a popular choice with the Scottish Bus Group and other operators, and over 1,000 were built between 1974 and 1980. It was used on a wide range of services, including express services, long-distance tours and charter work. The M Type was gradually withdrawn from service in the early 1990s, as it was replaced by newer and more modern coaches.

Registered F981 ENV from 1998, ours is representative of the last year of manufacture. In real life, the Discovery 1 followed some of the finer features of the Range Rover with the same chassis, suspension and 4 wheel drive system. It was designed, however, at a more affordable price point so it came with smaller engine sizes and initially a three door option. It was also the first Land Rover aimed at the daily driving family market whilst still maintaining the off road facility. In addition, it provided more luggage space and was the only model with a 4 cylinder petrol engine option as well as the diesel alternative. The Discovery 1 came with either a 4-speed automatic or 5-speed manual gearbox Another innovative feature was the interior for which Land Rover engaged the help of the Conran Design Group.  The result was a uniform interior colour scheme regardless of exterior paintwork, comprising a signature Sonar Blue to seats and carpet. The car also featured magazine holders above the windscreen, hand-holds for rear passengers built into the front seat head rests, new radio controls on the instrument cluster, two removable sunroof panels and a Land Rover branded cloth fabric holdall in the front centre console for storage. This unique ‘bag’ could be removed and with a detachable shoulder strap could be used as a fashion accessory.  A collector’s item in itself! The remainder of the interior and dashboard features of the Discovery 1 were taken from the existing Rover Group stable, including the instrument panel, digital clock, heater and air conditioning controls. A nod to nostalgia comprised the distinctive Morris Marina door handles. Our 1:76 scale model incorporates all the fine visual features of the original. The interior replicates the authentic Sonar Blue, enhanced with a Sonar Grey dashboard, steering wheel and door panels. Additional interior features include black floor mats, grey interior door handles, gearstick and hand brake. The exterior bodywork is a metallic red colour scheme with black and silver trim.
