Hi folks,
Just received my latest 1:72 diecast racer....Oxford Models DH-88 Black Magic so I thought I would share the joy.
Here she is in good company with some of my other 1:72 diecast racers:

That's one fine collection you are amassing there! Love the shape of the Comet wing, which did I once read somewhere that it was a bit unforgiving - nasty tip stall characteristic? Can anyone remember or elaborate on this?

Cheers

I've heard about that mate. And that's why I haven't bought 1 of these ;)
