1/43 Cararama Volkswagen Golf GTI

Here's another of the RM5 Tesco Cararama series. This is the final one from my haul at Tesco. Can't find these any more. As usual (for now), the details are superb for a car at this price.Side profile. Simple looking. Love those rims.
Still have the even-more-lovely brake callipers. Mirrors are not oversized here.
Simple back here.
Very detailed front end. Even the GTI wording is there. Not the umber plate, but on the grille.
Rear end. Brake lights a bit pinkish, but it's not much of a big deal.
Interior is the usual high standard.
Sorry for the rather dark pictures, as my cam seemed to have some problems. Anyway, from the first pic, you can see that the GTI seems to have the R8's LED light like effects. Nice.
I would buy a few more of these little cars if they were still around. At this price and with such details, it is really a steal.

1/43 Cararama Alfa Romeo Brera

Here's another 1/43 Cararama I got from Tesco for a mere RM5. Let's see how good does it stack up against the C30.

The side profile. Very beautiful, although the side mirror does seem a bit big. maybe it's just me.
Would you just have a look at the rims? It is really detailed. Even the Alfa badge is nice and clear. Well done !
The front of the car is also spectacular. Each of the headlight is individual. And look at the grille. The Alfa badge is still present, and still as beautiful as ever.

The rear end is also just as nice. Can you spot the minuscule bee-sting antenna?
Have a peek at the radio inside the interior.
Overall, I am really pleased with this Brera. It looks good, has detailing that belongs to much more expensive models and the price is just insane. I give this a 8.9/10.

1/43 Cararama Volvo C30

You might consider this odd, as the title of the blog says One Twenty Four, but I also review small (bigger) scales too. And so here is Cararama's 1/43 Volvo C30. Bought it from Tesco quite a while back for around RM5. Which translates to -> Cheap. Be ready to get surprised at this little beauty.The side profile. Everything looks in place. Nothing seems to be out of order. Yet.

Look at the wheels closely. Not even my RM60 GT-R has disc brakes !! This is what I call attention to detail. Cararama has managed to fit disc brakes on a 1/43 dirt cheap diecast.
Looks at the detailing on the front. Even the small Volvo badge is well made.
The exhaust is a slight disappointment, but for this kind of price, I'm not complaining.
Look at the interior. You can actually see the red carpet. Pity its plastic, not the soft material found in AutoArt or Kyosho cars. =p
Overall, I can't say I'm not pleased with it. For a mere RM5, I'm getting details from far more expensive models. Pity I can't find them already. I'd give this a 9/10.
