From SpainHello there my new friends. I'm Pepe, from Spain, and I'm a newbie about diecast, being my primary interest action figures (collectting and designing them).
My scottish brother-in-law gave me last summer his childhood Corgi Batmobile, and after storing it in a drawer for nearly a year, I decided to restore it and that started all. I'm now after the Corgi DB5, Dinky FAB 1 and Captain Scarlet references. I pretend to restore them and personalize them a bit, always maintaining them as toys.
That's all for now! Where's the bar here? Thirsty after such long speech...

Two for the price of one??? Dave, you'll be going bust at this rate!

naranjasOk, it's all naranjas to me.
Goed dat je sinaasappels met dubbel-a schrijft! Waar heb je zo goed Nederlands geleerd?
Ik geloof niet dat je het hebt, maar ik wilde je vragen of je ook aan zo'n muziekdoosje kunt komen voor in een 474........

Want it in German?
Heißen Sie willkommen zum Diecast Drive-in von Gary. Setzen Sie sich mit uns hin. Wir sind sehr freundlich.
Seriously, you have to be learn a little when trading with the countries I trade with. I do however draw the line at Chinese and Japanese. I found them too complicated, But all of the European languages have a lot in common, which makes it easy to pick up enough to get by.

Is it Dutch or you are trying to write with your right hand? E' Olandese o hai scritto con la mano destra?
Hola Pepe, bienvenido!

..LFDC, trying to be clever eh? I can translate that: Is the Dutch guy trying to peel off oranges with his right hand?
