Would love to, but wifey says no.

What are you? A man or a sheep?

Neither, I'm Welsh and married. So wait until you have a wife, a mortgage and a sprinkling of kids and then come back and tell me that you're able to buy all the stuff you want.

To be honest though I'm quite spoiled rotten as it is (I've still got a real Mini for starters), so I don't want to push my luck too much.

But then I guess you won't need to worry about girlfriends or marriage for a while yet, not until you pass the puberty stage anyway?

Either way we bought the Scalextric Mini Cross racing set from Argos for my daughter back in Xmas 1993.

The fact she was only 2 years of age at the time didn't really matter and we've still got it and it's still mint and boxed. But it's been lovingly used and enjoyed over the years anyway.

Yea I saw that in model zone. I went in the the Basingstoke one and was talking to this really nice guy and he was showing me all the models they had in stock. Their was also a blue radio controlled mini that was about £100.

[Mini-Mad-Craig]

£190 is a bloody joke! its an m03, you can get m05 for that!!. Have a shop around, thats wayy to expensive. Ive got four of them inclu that monte carlo and it is a lovely car, to nice to use!

I don't even have any track. Im gonna pick some up from a mate at college. I have a 1275gt that iv had for ages now and iv never used it. I dunno if I will use this one iv just bought though. Im guessing it will be worth more if its in an unused condition.

Jon go to toy fairs or car boot sales to pick up cheap Scalextric track.. That's what Stuart from Mayfair Motors was advising me at Malvern. I think I'll be placing an order with him for a 621 AOK model. Being a 59'er it's going to be very slow though ha ha ha !!!!!

Yea I'm just gonna keep an eye out for some track. My bro said he's got some in the loft so I may go and have a looky for that in a bit.
