Awesome Bentley collection. Such tiny little works of art.

Would you know what the five white wreath decals on the front spoiler represent?

Yes, they represent the 5 Bentley wins at Le Mans earlier : 1924, 1927, 1928, 1929 and 1930.

I took this pic at Le Mans, to show you that they looked exactly like that :

You think it's our job to find and tell the errors. Some sort of a quiz, "spot the differences" Sure the wiper is to small, the rear view mirror support to thick and the aerials maybe over dimensioned. But WTF, that is not what this is all about. No kit is perfect and you made it out of the box, in 2 weeks time with a fantastic result!! I'm not gonna sit here and listen to your: "As usual it's not perfect, but it will do." IT is a very well executed job with the materials on hand and it sits beautifully on your collection. I still have to see the day, that - after so many years in modeling - I can finish a kit in 2 weeks time with such a good result. I think you did GREAT!! You got that?








oh and euh, did I tell you that I have the impression you have had some problems with the window. Something wrong with it but I can tell exactly what. Satisfied?

just kidding of course.

Thanks Sennake, figured it might be something like that, but thought there were a few too many. Didn't realise Bently won Le Mans so many times in the 20s!

The record still stands for Porsche though.

16 wins in 54 years...



Here on my webpage you can see them all as models. I didn't build them all yet, you will recognize mine when you see a shadow underneath the car, the ones without a shadow "floating" in the air are from the Starter webpage...

An amazing achievement by Porsche indeed, and an amazing collection you already build there.
