Spyker Scale Cars

None approach the beauty of #045! :lol:

... can you take a picture from straight above? Your car should be similarly good looking from above!!! We need more pics from this angle!

[OnTheLam]

I would love to. Can you tell me how you managed that one? What height, what lens? I'll give it a try.

[amzamz]

... I was under a bridge. The photographer climbed up onto the bridge. Not sure what exact height, but probably around 7-10m. Make sure both, bridge and road under it are not really in use... in my case it was a forest road, and a local train line crossing...

I think #045 suits you best !

[OnTheLam]

That looks like fun. Beautiful spot. The overhead angle really is superior, too.

I'll work on it, see what I can find around here that would work. Thanks for the suggestion!

... a rare 1:43 model on eBay. It is the 2005 Le Mans Spyker.

[amzamz]

... these are the 3 versions of C8 Double 12 model cars 1:43 which I have. The one on the left is the Spark / Replicars, the one in the middle is the Provence Moulage (for the R) and the one on the right is from the Spyker gift box (manufacturer not known).

Questions:

1) Does anyone know how and why the latter was manufactured? When and where was it used? Apparently, it is just a series of 500. Why is the manufacturer not known?

2) Why are there sometimes 2 vents, sometimes 3 on the engine compartment? Do we see this on the real cars?
