Way OT I know, but I have just made my first ebay purchase and it is not a watch! In fact as the pic below shows it is a toy car. My sons really enjoy the TV series Due South (we now have it on DVD) and being into cars especially like the 1971 Buick Riviera 'boat-tail' car that features in the programme. I have tried for some years to find a model of the car for them and this is the closest yet. As for the next purchase.....

Thanks for looking,

Nigel

Congrats!

Congrats, Nigel! Wind it up and strap it on! er...I mean...hmmm.

Just joking. That's a good way to test the waters and get a feel for the process. It's not so bad, is it?

Let us know how the next purchase goes!

Hey, I owned one of those. Bought it new and loved it. My friends called it the "Batmobile" but it was a great "land yacht".

Mine was metallic maroon (dark red) with a white vinyl top and white leather interior.

That was back when they made cars large enough to walk around in.

Of course, I'd like to find an Aston Martin like 007's for the "big kid" in me. ;-)

You and me both!
