OooOOOoooo YES!!!!

I bought the two small size 135i models. 1:87 (small) and 1:43 (medium) sized models. They also had the larger 1:18 size for 65 euros.

The only problem is they die cast models are only made in two colors: Black or Sedona Red. I think I will buy another small model and try and paint it myself. My car is silver like your Ian.

I think I will pick that one (1:18th) scale model up in Munich when I go there in a few weeks. I want to go see the BMW Welt and Musuem there. I have never been there. Only on the outside of the buildings. lol

Here are some pics of the 135i models I have. They are cool, bc they open in an unusual way. By turning the cover in 180' degrees. Its also interesting that the small one is made in Germany while the medium size is made in China.



1;43rd box


small 1:87th scale...









You can order these models from any BMW dealer:

small 135i model: 80 41 0 427 070 price 18 euros
med 135i model 80 42 0 427 067 price 28 euros
large 1:18 scale model 65 euros. sorry noo part number.

Btw... BMW makes a models for every car they build! IF anyone needs help just PM me.
