Conclusion
I’ve said it in the past and I’ll say it again. No other diecast brand offers the value that Classic Carlectables does. I got this Monaro for around 105CAD including taxes and shipping, which is close to what I pay for AA Millenium models (around 100CAD). However, the CC has way more details. This model doesn’t have any “gimmicks” (like working windows), but the details are exemplary and worth a spot in any racecar collector’s collection.
