The Postage was the value of the model :cry:
Mine wasn't far off... almost £60 total.

My real BX only cost me £100!

There should be some spare chevrons in the box...

Mine turned up ages ago, I joined the club and pre-ordered it. Got the AX GT model as well, which is identical to my real AX GT!

And I won the lucky draw competition on the website and won a model Clio V6 :D

Found the chevrons tucked in the box, very easy to misss with the packaging.

Now to get nimble fingers to put them on. :lol:

Hope it's fully comp.

What happened?

Mine's ok, though strangely had only one chevron affixed, so I used the spares to make that good. Other than that it is very nice, and will join the Traction Avant, 2CV, DS, SM and XM in my collection. Pity I've (not yet) found a CX... plenty in 1:43, but none so far in 1:18... :(

BOTH door mirors snapped off and in the box, half of the rear spoiler has come away too. I will fix it myself but even so not happy.

It might be worth emailing them if you've not already fixed it - they may organise a replacement.
