Nice collection. Not seen the saloon version before.

I got mine (s/h) on eBay about 18 months ago for £70. Is that the going rate now, or was I fleeced?

£100 pound is starting to be the norm, new they were around the £35 mark but have since gone way up.

If you do buy one, get a really good black permanent marker with it then you can have black optics like mine Image

Wow some awesome B5 RS4s on BBS on there :-) I was hoping they had a nice black b7 avant.

Minichamps didn't make a black avant. They only made these;

RS4 Avant; Silver
RS4 Avant; Red
RS4 Saloon; Black
RS4 Saloon; Blue

The quality is very good on these cars and they seem to be going up in value all the time.

I've got a couple of custom made cars in other colours too. I'll take some pics later.
