Hi Guys,

My wife in Europe stopped at the local ESSO gas station and bought a VX model right there. I sent her back to buy all the stock but they only had 3. I did a research on the brand and found the following web site:

If you are interested check it out.

I have a few of those in my collection. They are made by Hongwell and were distributed under several different toy makers including Schuco. There are two scales, 1/72nd and 1/43. The larger has doors that open and they each came in a variety of colors. The detail is actually better than the hotwheels and Fastlane cars that you see. Still not perfect, but not bad either.
