Back in the day, these would cost one shilling and sixpence. That's 7.5p in to-days currency.
That's a staggering 6666% increase.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If that's one of those 1/32 scale kits, I'm crying too. I built a number of them and for the smaller scale they were surprising! Separate suspensions and exhaust, multi piece engines and very nice interiors. I had a Mini, a dull 2 door sedan, and something else. If I'd kept them sealed and unbuilt, I'd have something now! Instead I have good memories and no regrets. I'll pass too on the ridiculous asking price. Airfix was QUALITY in small scale back then. Ta, mate!

Better than bank interest. I built this back in 1973 ish, a typical 12 yo glue bomb.
Long gone.
And they were a good kit, plenty of detail, I also remember an Austin Maxi, Aston DB 4/5, Mini
and a Morris Marina. No chrome plating. If they were a 1/25 kit I'd like one, but not at that price.

If it was gold plated with a running engine and a real life dwarf running round it I still would not hand over 500 bar for it. This bloke must be smoking something he should have handed to a policeman Me thinks.
