Title: OT: Trax Leyland P76
Post by: RET on February 08, 2003, 01:21:09 AM
There's an article about the new Trax Leyland P76 in today's Sydney Morning Herald:

http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2003/02/07/1044498909277.html

I was amused by this line:
Quote
Sydney-based Trax company has built 14,500 1:43 scale models of the doomed mobile - almost as many as the actual car sold in its entire life.


cheers

It's now Feb 4, 2004 and Trax is still tryin to get rid of the P76's they made........betcha they dont make any more. Maybe they'll try something a little more popular now.......like a Leyland Marina, or a Honda Civic. Why would you bother ?

ches    the funny thing with the p76 model is that trax asked collectors what they wanted..p76 was very high on the list..... i have one in my collection.......& nothing has fallen off it ...yet!!

Hey RET
    Remember they were also called a "P38"    cos they were only "1/2" a car  ;D

PS . I was at "Oran Park" when they released them , mmm shows my age  :-/
