I think I've seen RHD models in England, but they could be grey market. It's about 50/50 with Japanese cars. |

| Since 2009 Nissan NP200 |
Since 2009? Are we sure this is still going? |

| 2010 Renntech C74 Konzept [W204] | Does this really count as a concept? It looks like a body kit on a stock Mercedes. | 2020-04-16 00:56 | |
| Since 2020 Chevrolet Corvette C8 |
Convertible and Very Convertible! |

I've had this issue before when adding diecasts. Basically, certain forms of punctuation cause an issue with the website's database. Add the info with no punctuation and you should be golden! Less basically, for those who care, some punctuation marks are used in programming and if someone writes a short script, they can mine a database for info through that code. The error is a security measure to prevent this. While makes and models are not valuable data, these scripts can be injected into databases with personal data in them. An alternative security measure may be to limit characters but in the model field, this would be a struggle due to some cars excessive names. |

| 1987-1989 Nissan Sunny [N13] | Not 100% sure but I think this was made in the Nissan plant at Sunderland. | 2020-02-13 01:33 | |
| 1996-1998 Toyota Ipsum Mk.I [XM10] |
There are so many grey market import MPVs in my area that I assumed that this was one of them! |

| 2005-2010 Lexus SC Series II [Z40] |
It actually just popped up on Twitter this morning! |
2020-01-30 00:18 | |
| 2005-2010 Lexus SC Series II [Z40] | I learned today that this was the last car built with a cassette player as standard! | 2020-01-29 02:34 | |
| 2020 Sony Vision-S |
Shame. It's a great looking car! I'm guessing it'll be exclusive to Playstation games in the near future though! |
2020-01-08 17:05 | |
| 2020 Sony Vision-S | Are Sony entering the car market or is this just a one-off thing? | 2020-01-08 11:59 | |
| 1964-1971 Meyers Manx |
First one I clicked on in the new year! |
2020-01-02 11:43 | |
| 1964-1971 Meyers Manx | Happy 2020 Y'all! | 2020-01-01 04:45 | |
| 1963-1967 Austin-Healey 3000 Series III | The second Blue/Ivory is a different casting. | 2019-12-13 00:14 | |
| 2003-2008 Fiat Punto 2a serie | Although sold in the UK, I don't think the CNG engine was. | 2019-12-12 00:49 | |
| 1957-1973 Volkswagen Käfer | The Pearl White 53 1:76 diecast is NOT a licensed Herbie model. | 2019-12-11 01:06 | |
| Since 2018 Kia Sedona Series III [YP] |
Why not? |
2019-12-11 00:29 | |
| Since 2018 Aston Martin DBS Superleggera |
My favourite aircraft ever built. I was a tad excited reading about this today! |
2019-11-27 18:07 | |
| 1997-1999 Toyota GranVia [XH10] | There's a bunch of these in my area, so there's either a grey market importer or this was sold in the UK. | 2019-11-23 02:39 | |
| Since 2020 Buick Encore GX [VSS-F] |
I thought it looked quite similar to the Crossland/Mokka. I've looked again and it is a subtly different design but you can't deny the similarities. |
2019-11-22 15:45 | |
| Since 2020 Buick Encore GX [VSS-F] | I thought Buick was done rebadging Vauxhall/Opel cars? | 2019-11-22 13:28 | |
| 1936-1939 MG TA |
Like a lot of classic British stuff, these will probably pop up anywhere that used to be part of the empire/commonwealth. |
2019-11-21 02:21 | |
| Since 2020 Ford Mustang Mach-E [GE1] | I am yet to see an angle of this car that isn't truly vile. Even the interior looks cheap, with an oversized iPad rammed into it with no thought of aesthetics. | 2019-11-19 00:40 | |
| 1991-1993 Sao Penza |
I can assure you that I have never seen one. |

| 1975-1986 Rolls-Royce Camargue |
The story behind this car is mad! It was the first post-WW2 Rolls-Royce not designed in-house, first Rolls-Royce designed to metric measurements and the first car to ever have split-level climate control. At-launch was the most expensive car in the world (albeit briefly). It was launched in the USA a year after it's launch in Europe. On a side-note, I'm not sure that the production location is correct but I can not offer an alternative at present. |

| 2001 BMW Z29 | If it was never showed, how do we have pictures of it? Surely this (wherever it is) should count as first shown on a technicality. | 2019-10-31 01:25 | |
| 1997-2007 Xiali TJ7100AU-TJ7101U-TJ7130AU-TJ7131U | What the hell is the deal with that name? | 2019-10-29 02:28 | |
| 1994-1999 Chevrolet Cavalier Coupé Mk.III [J-Body] | Pretty sure this was sold as a Hyundai in the UK. | 2019-10-10 00:55 | |
| 2019 Toyota e-Palette |
Seems closer to something along the lines of the Optare Alero minibus. (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optare_Alero) |

| 2015-2016 Lagonda Taraf | From what I can tell, only 120 were ever made, not 200. I'm having some difficulty working out countries too. Definitely the Middle East (Taraf is Arabic for ultimate luxury), but I'm not sure they even sold it in the UK! | 2019-10-07 02:50 | |
| 1977-1979 Mazda Luce Legato Hardtop (Luce Hardtop) Series III [LA4] | Are we sure that the 2.0 is less powerful than the 1.3? (I assume thats litres) | 2019-09-30 00:48 | |
| Since 2020 Tecnodom Fiat Tipo TCR |
Surely by this point, it has been built though? We go off production years for US cars, why not this? |
2019-09-13 02:08 | |
| Since 2020 Tecnodom Fiat Tipo TCR | Why does this not have a year? | 2019-09-11 22:57 | |
| 2006-2008 Toyota Rush [J200] | I think this was sold in the UK/Europe but under a different name. | 2019-09-07 00:25 | |
| 1987-1990 Chevrolet Cavalier Z24 Coupé Mk.II [J-Body] |
Shame the Vauxhall version never got a coupe! Then again, it might not have sold well and the Caveliar is not fondly remembered! |
2019-08-25 02:04 | |
| 1987-1990 Chevrolet Cavalier Z24 Coupé Mk.II [J-Body] | Any relation to the Vauxhall Cavelier, another GM car of the same era? | 2019-08-24 20:46 | |
| 1989-1996 Škoda Favorit 136 N1 [Typ 781] |
The UK reg below it is 1990 (H reg) so that one should be right at least. |
2019-08-23 22:52 | |
| 2015-2019 Jaguar XE [X760] | I think the same factory is listed twice. Birmingham, UK is in the West Midlands. | 2019-08-14 22:08 | |
| 2019 SVC Offroad Ford F-150 Raptor Ken Block |
I think we need a One-off category. |
2019-07-25 00:58 | |
| 2019 SVC Offroad Ford F-150 Raptor Ken Block | Should this not be a concept car? | 2019-07-24 02:45 | |
| Since 2020 Chevrolet Corvette C8 | I have heard a rumour that a right-hand drive model will be made. The whether this is for Australia, Japan, India or the UK (and therefore Europe) is unknown. | 2019-07-19 19:32 | |
| 1990-1995 Toyota Land Cruiser Mk.VII [J80] |
There is one of these near where I live. Either: 1. This version was sold in the UK (and possibly Europe) 2. There is a European version 3. It is a grey market import and I am wasting everyone's time. If anyone knows which it would be really helpful. Thank you in advance! |
2019-07-18 00:43 | |
| 1965-1991 Barkas B 1000 KB (B 1000-1 KB) | Was this definitely sold in the UK? I have never seen one before. | 2019-07-06 01:08 | |
| 1960-1963 Aston Martin DB4 GT Zagato |
Despite being a road car, this was used in the 1961 Le Mans. Both cars retired early. -- Last edit: 2019-07-04 14:21:35 |
2019-07-04 14:21 | |
| 1972 Citroën SM Presidentielle | I assume from the name that this was built for the President of France. If so, should we be marking other similar vehicles IE The US Presidents Cadillac or the various cars owned by British PM's and royalty over the years? | 2019-07-03 00:55 | |
| 2019 RRG Crazy Bar |
I would argue that that would make sense, but fair enough. |
2019-06-16 22:51 | |
| 2019 RRG Crazy Bar | Since these are all based on old Renaults should we not put the cars they are based on under 'similar cars' or 'other body styles'? | 2019-06-16 17:05 | |
| 2010-2012 Lexus LFA Nürbürgring Edition | Should this not just be listed as a special edition of the regular LFA? | 2019-06-08 01:15 | |
| 1979-1984 AC 3000ME | This was based on a Diablo concept car by Peter Bohanna but I am not sure how much he put towards this car (if any). Shall I name him as a designer or just leave it? | 2019-06-02 17:20 | |
| 1964-1966 FSO Syrena 103 S | Origin Poland - Made for Poland? | 2019-06-02 00:24 |
