Diecast Collections?

[John B]

John B, the Jaguar E2A is number 6, which I got recently - just need number 5 car to have the starting 6, then the Aston and some Ferrari's - that would blow the budget.
Have a copy of the picture too !!

Roger, I'd like the #5 Jaguar D-Type from Le Mans 1960 for my collection too, but unfortunately Spark has not produced a model of it yet.

This D-Type has an interesting story. Powered by a 2997cc 6-cylinder, it was driven by Ron Flockhart & Bruce Halford, but retired after 14 hour with a broken crankshaft. It was the last D-Type to race at Le Mans, and the last Jaguar raced by Ecurie Ecosse. It was also subject to the high windscreen and luggage compartment regulations, meaning that it wasn't as 'pretty' as previous D-Types. The car ran as high as 3rd, but was 5th for most of the race, overshadowing the newer #6 Jaguar E2A (E-type 2A Prototype).
