In my old civic I had a mini toy version of my car set into the dash just below the head unit. Had it lit up with a light in there in its own little box. Looked awesome.

I have quite a collection of rally cars including quite a few subarus.

In total 468 1:43 scale, 6 1:18 cars and 14 1:24 hand built plastic tamiya kits

Collection is growing by the week, awaiting to take delivery of two more purpose built cabinets to get more of the 1:43 cars on display.

Yes it's quite an obsession of mine

I've got an Autoart Bugeye STI wagon in white, like my old car.

Wish selling that would have paid the mortgage while I was awaiting an operation lol

A few pictures of the ones currently on display.

Some of the 1:43 scale cars, Quite a few Scoobys on the 6th row.
The bottom two rows are the Colin Mcrae Tribute collection plus a few more of his drives

There will still be around another 100 that don't make it to display
