New arrival

[PeterI]

Today this well packed parcel arrived from China..
With a letter from Toyota North America for customs.

After removing the outer layers this was revealed...

So whats in the box?

It's a RX450h+ "dealership" 1/18 model from China via samodelcar.com

Comes with these elastic bands with hooks on the end to keep the doors closed (bit of pain to remove)

)

Okay time for a look inside... We get a little hook tool clipped underneath the plinth to help

All nicely detailed inside front seats can slid back and forward and the little instruction book says the armrest can be opened.

I've failed to open it and I don't want to force things.

View from the front

And the detailed (although I've no idea how accurate) underside with suspension and working steering to the wheel

The engine bay looks good

And you can remove the engine cover (it's held on with magnets

The boot also opens

And the floor comes out too

Anyway I rather like it and it will be going on a shelf above my computer to remind me why I need to keep on working to afford new toys...

Cost shipped was $163.17 including the discount code, I think the same guy also retails via eBay.

If you decide to purchase one, removing it off the plinth takes four screws and the little stand pieces will fall out so be careful, I managed to find mine on the floor so no harm done.

Because it's in a copper colour same as my car was thing that made me pull the trigger. If you go hunting around on the chinese lexus website you can find the brochures for lots of odd branded lexus accessories....
