The first model is a red VW Corrado, which is a car that was not represented at scale by many vintage manufacturers, so it is a good addition to any die-cast collection. This version is the red one with white text, reference number 1411-040.
The second model is a Ferrari GTO, from which I got two in a row. They are basically identical, except for the GTO logo on both sides and the colour of the windows.
The first model is reference number 1625-040, has Ferrari and GTO logos on both sides and its windows are green.
The second model, without logos of any kind on the sides and brown windows is reference number 1625-040.
This model has been made dozens of times by all die-cast manufacturers, and, in my opinion, this one doesn't have very accurate proportions. Pity, but still a very cool car. Interestingly, Darda made this car only in red.

Hi, do you know how much a red corrado g60 with black writing might be worth?
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry, I have no idea, as there are many variants out there and each one is more or less rare. In any case, any Darda model today in good shape (used but no very worn) is worth at least 10-15 euro. Thanks for the comment!
DeleteHi, sorry, I also noticed that dardamania is now for registered users only (I recently wrote about some f1 cars from the 2000s), but I didn't try to register so far. I hope you can manage to register and check what's in. Cheers, Juan
