1/18 Scale Model R56 MINIs!

These are amazingly detailed models from AutoArt. The level of detail is mind-blowing...There are seat belts with buckles. The doors open and close. The speedometer even has markings on it! Very nice for your desk at work. (Not so good for your child to play with. It's meant as a display item, not as a toy.)





We've got silver and blue R56 Cooper models in stock.

Yes, although shipping could cost as much as the model.

Sorry, they don't give us a choice of wheels...Is (was) the R84 wheel not available on the R56?

That would be awesome. I collect die cast as well, and always wanted to get an exact mini version, but very few options are usually available.

you're only option is to get 1/24 plastic kits, I've built all the cars I've owned to as close to real as possible. Wheels, interior, etc... are very hard to get exact, but depends on the amount of mis-match you are willing to live with.
Now my challenge is a 09 Clubman.. gonna have to split/splice 2 models and skip the clam doors, leave it a hatch back. Roof is diff too, but they're more of a rough physical memory anyway.
Here's a pic of my old Dakota with actual tinited windows

Can we custom order? (although a Pepper White R56 with tinted windows and a black roof isn't that custom)

Please let me know, I'd definitely buy one!

Well if you ever do get a Pepper White R56 model (preferably a non S) you have a sale from me. My wife wants a model MINI for her desk at work.
