These model cars are worth more than his real car

Do you have a model car collection? Mike gives us an insight into his own collection, which actually amounts to a slightly scary valuation when you add them up. They are rather lovely though...

It's a crying shame to buy something and not enjoy it though. You might as well just put money into a high interest account or something. Buy something, enjoy it, if you get some back for it at a future point, bonus!

Your passion and anxiety are appreciated and understood. A deep dive into any of them would be a great watch- the car YOU are the most interested in would be the best video to watch. Thanks for sharing your stable with us!👍
I have the same Silk Cut Jaguar but...I built it from an expensive plastic kit! My love of that model is much greater than any of my die cast models. My blood sweat and tears went into that Jag.
Your hand and arm movements so close to those models made me nervous....and they're not even mine 😄
The xjr 9's are amazing but I prefer the mazda 787b in renown green and orange :)

I cringe when I hear tht
Interesting video DriveTribe, it's always great seeing such model cars in detail. It's also great to hear a history/details about the real cars! Thanks and bring us more of these!
As an 1/43 collector, when you pulled out the hpi triple set, i got goosebumps. I’d give my left one for the Sauber-Mercedes set, but the Porsche or Jaguar sets are just as awesome. That exoto xjr-9 is just breathtaking, btw. Also, while getting a xjr in 1/43 might be easier than 1/18, actually sourcing one with the silk cut decals took me months of patient eBay watching (thank you, seller from France!) Currently, I’m only one TWR XJ-S etcc car away from finishing my racing jaguar collection and as much as I spend on models, the technology and stories they all represent never fail to bring joy to my life.
Mate I can’t believe you opened your models! Thank you so much! That is huge. More on the Aston please!
Thank you, Mike, for sharing your car collection. Exoto makes excellent scale models. I had a phone conversation with the owner of Exoto a number of years ago. He was extremely passionate about getting all of the details correct on the race liveries. If you are interested in very high quality 1:18 older classic race cars check out CMC scale models.
I have the Exoto XJR 9. It's a fabulous model! Thanks for sharing your collection with us.
I want to see something about the Jaguars - Silk Cut ones.
I had 30+ 1:18 models placed in my display cabinet and one day while I was cleaning the models the shelf supports gave way and my complete collection came tumbling down out of the cabinet in front of my eyes. Half of the models had minor damage but the resin models especially were completely destroyed. One of the worst days in recent memory so I totally understand your behavior when handling your most precious models.
Thanks for keeping me entertained during lockdown in South Africa
Once you got diecast you never go back, seeing your excitement tells me how deep you're into the hobby.
Love your collection. It hits all of the right marks. Thanks for opening the Jag's for us. Believe me, I felt your pain as you opened the boxes. Also loved the Victory by Design footage. Cheers!
Those TWR Jaguars bring back some pretty powerful memories for me. I had a pretty bad motorcycle accident a few months before le man....my friend and I decided not to go to le man, but a few days before the race, we met up and by the end of the night, had booked tickets to the race. Seeing those 3 jags cross the finish line was unbelivable
Damm a cool Collection your have, enjoyed them and congrats with them❤️
The Group C Peugeot is the one I know the least about consequently it gets my vote for what I would like to see you do.
I love DRIVETRIBE thank you so much Mike hope you are ok and thank you for sharing amazing models very nice. I love models too I have a lot of Holden special vehicles, Brock commodores and some Toronas too. Australian cars love cars. Thank you again for sharing :)
I love your passion towards them. It’s incredible!
Great collection Mike! My favourite of the bunch is the Aston Martin.
I have all of those model cars that was featured in this video aswell😁. You guys make great videos, and are definetly the best automotive KZread channel of all time😇
Amazing models! Wouldnt mind a video about the Peugeot 905C!
Great models, great video, a man after my own heart as i get nervous taking my models out of the box.
Thanks for sharing your model collection, Mike! Those are some beautiful collectables! As a Mustang fanatic, I have 1/18 scale models of every generation of Ford Mustang on one of my shelves.
Cool, thanks for sharing man! 👍
You can hear his passion as he talks about the models, really cool!
I think your collection value has been significantly understated! It's worth way more than you realise, I expect

Not really, he even payed way more than some of them are worth. It's a shame, because he could have gotten better versions of them for almost the same price. The exoto is the only one that's kinda in its real value. That's what happens when you don't know where to buy nor investigate enough before doing a purchase. I'm not saying it's a bad collection, though, it only saddens me that it could be greater for less.
Great collection!! It was great to see how stressed you were :) The Peugeot engined Mclaren was the mp4/9 though, not the mp4/10 which was the first Merc engined Mclaren. Also, Exoto is an American brand.
Beautiful collection. I am also an obsessive model collector (mainly 1/16 tanks and 1/32 lead soldiers) and I can tell you that you must get them out on display. The joy of a collection for me is to see it all together and be able to compare items. You just need some decent glass cabinets. Enjoy your wonderful cars. Every time you walk past the cabinets you will stop and admire them. It will make you happy every day. I have 6 separate collections (models, amber, ancient silver jewellery, meteorites, prehistoric stone tools and RC vehicles) and they are all on display. My whole house is a collection. I admire them all the time. Pretty sure Buddhism is not for me...
Awesome collection.... I have a few CMC pre war German race cars and the MB 196 and transporter that are stored in their boxes currently as I don’t have a nice display case....Nice models are just very nice !
awesome video!
I need more of this! Collecting car models is megacool
Awesome video. Who collects models cars like me and many others know from where comes this passion
Brilliant 👌🏼 Went the Autosport offices a few times and they have an amazing collection
I felt your pain.. I have to be honest, I've never been and I'm not, a fan of those style of racing cars. However, you obviously are. When I was a kid I collected 1:18 Bburago Models. Must have had 40. I absolutely loved them, but my cousins got hold of a couple of them and mirrors broke, spoilers came off... Wheels... You know. I'm now 40, and still gutted. Thank you for putting yourself through that for this video thoroughly enjoyed it. Let us know when you've got your display cabinet sorted, would love to see it 👌👍

It’s not embarrassing at all it’s something you love doing your knowledge is impressive you carry on as you are and to hell with the ppl that think differently everyone should have a hobby keeps you out of trouble i really enjoyed this video thanks for showing us your collection

Thanks for sharing your collection! As a collector myself (albeit not quite as high-value lol) I found this video fascinating 😎
Lovely models, very interesting. My favourite was the dark green XJR9.
You guys must do more of these videos 👍🏻👍🏻💯💯
Nice one, Mike!
Absolutely Super collection! *I am making a crate into a coffee table, building a place inside for my car collection to be inside under glass. I can't wait to see what you come up with, the scale of your cars will make a statement piece!
I would want the porshe 917, and that is an amazing collection.
I just bought these cases for my 1/18 models that have LED lights in the corners to show off the car as if it was in a show room for $30. If you want cases for your models I highly suggest getting ones with lights to show off the color of the car
Love it, great collection. Started my own Jaguar Le Mans display but with slot cars so the kids can play them
I have several Exoto models, they are probably in the top 5 of great models, being retired now, I can't afford them. I have the Exoto 917 Sunoco model with both the bird cage and full body models, it's valued around $4500.00 now.
Stunning models there. He's a fellow bluenose too.🤣👍
An actual collector feels you emotion when removing the packaging
This video was really entertaining.
Lovely collection!
Very envious of your collection. Aston Martin.
Nice! If you do display watch the lighting as they can be affected by uv. I would rotate and display for a couple of months a year so they don't get light damaged. Not normally a Porsche fan but my favourite is the 917K. 😎
I finally found a youtuber that i almost speak the same way And goodevening! :D
Cool 👍 nice video 👍👏
just brilliant!
That is such a nice collection. I have two Le Mans cars made by Minichamps, in 1:18 scale. I need those models what you have in my collection...😣
Thank you for another fantastic video👍 I would like to see the 917, since I got a 1:4,5 scale model of the same car.
Everyone is uploading right now, i feel like ive missed something
I too would simply love to see content about the Peugeot 905 cause it is beautiful and you can never possibly go wrong with a V10 engine.
all of those cars are awesome and i guess i couldnt decide which on of those i would like to know more of. So i decided to throw some more in there, Mazda 787b and the Sauber C9 are some really special cars to me and id like to know more about those:) Thanks for the content and the sacrifice of taking the jags out of the wrappers although you dont need to do this for me:)
Thanks for going the extra length to show us your models! P. S. I'd love to see the Lola-Aston Martin on the channel, because it is such an underrated LMP1, despite having a naturally aspirated gasoline V12 when diesel was the way to go
Hi, I totally agree and felt the same, when you opened the boxes with the two Jaguar's! So rare like a jackpot! And absolutely marvelous models. I too collect all race car models from the NOREV manufacturer. Luckily my wife likes my hobby ! Greetings and best wishes for a happy collecting !
I can't believe I'm watching and enjoying a video about model cars. Then again, I did the same for Doug Demuro's models. I'd love to get a model made of my truck once I get the dark gunmetal wheels and carbon fiber tailgate/roof spoiler on. It'd be a sweet looking model.
Wow man... Nice collection... Really nice... At this moment I have 120 models on my collection from 1:18 to 1:43 scale... My collection is probably around the 1800 pounds mark by my calculations... Fortunately my current real car is worth a lot more than that... But my previous wasn't 😂... What can I say, call us nerds or whatever, but it's a real passion... As for the video I'll go for the iconic Porsche 917 😉
I can't stand Shmee but your model collection is next level! Small but perfectly formed! I have an ever growing Ferrari collection of all scales, maybe one day it will be worth more than a real one!!
Mike must be drooling when watching Martin Brundle on the F1 podcasts, with that giant XJR model of the car he drove on the bookcase behind him. That thing is massive! I wonder if it was a one-off.
Really nice models.
Would love to have a rare collection of models in the future! Love them all!
Does the display box come as standard with the Norev cars or does it have to be purchased seperately?
More of this please!
Porsche 917, without any doubt. You are so passionate about your collection. I understand how you feel about them, but you have to get your display case to display them.
Model cars are not my thing at all but this was so interesting and I love the care and attention. Really great to his passion for this
I couldn't choose, either the Aston martin or the Porsche 917, I have the 191st Aston Martin dbr1 made by norev and I love it more than my actual car, it is my baby, loved the video on model cars, I think you should do more
i really like to see someting with all of those real versions, but if i need to pick one: the Peugeot 905. really cool video, i watched in awe.
Peugeot 905 content would be so amazing, thanks!
Amazing models
Very much enjoyed this story....now where's my storage box again with all my model cars.... 🤔
Mike, I loved your collection & appreciate you sharing it with us. You come across as a genuine & decent bloke. Forgive me if I've misjudged it but you don't seem as though actually do suffer from ocd. Again, my sincere apologies if I have this wrong. My son suffers from ocd. It is a debilitating condition which ruins lives & not something to be taken lightly when referring to a normal level of care taken with precious possessions. Please don't take offence. I am not angry, just slightly too sensitive about a very serious mental health condition that most people shrug off as being just about light switches & keeping things tidy. Love the channel. A £900 st200 is a bargain. Do you want to sell it?
I thought of the Peugeot just before you mentioned you'd like to drive it because of its engine 👍 you should also get a model of the #55 Mazda 787B from 1991 in 1:18 scale and then create some content with that 😉
Please please do content on the Aston LMP1, Peugeot 905 and even a history lesson of the Jaguars that raced in Group C. Amazing models by the way. Thanks for the video.
Any of the Jaguars Please. Great collection and thank you for sharing a special moment
How did they change the rear tires on the XJR9s? Curious cuz the wheels are covered
They may not be like those, but the most realistic models, I’ve have ever seen are Pocher kits. For example, if the rims were wire spokes, you had to build the rims w/little “wire spokes”. Real leather, real carpet. Amazing detail. Kits can run upwards of $2000.00.
Hi Mike, another great video and some really nice models, it does'nt bother me much if the body panels like doors etc open or not, i bought a 1.12 scale bluebird land speed record car and nothing opens yet its my favourite model that i own, made by a boy named Jeff luft,, i hope I have his name right, take care.
917 all the way! Great video by the way! 👍
The removing of the wrap got my like. It's the least i can do. Thank you for the video!
I am not into model cars, but I'm sure lot of people who collect something can relate when you opened that 1:18 Jaguars, great video
i had and loved my mondeo st24 ..... saloon in ford state blue. as for models, i did have a ricko 1-18 rs200 .... but i got rid of it .... in my garage now, i have a mr2 turbo (thinking of getting rid), but i drive a leaf .... and i like it, it saves me a fortune and just works.
I enjoy Shmee150 video but how many time is says Hi Hello etc of his videos is priceless.
The Aston Martin 007 LMP1 I have rarely seen any content on at all. So do more on that car please.
Great diecast cars...do you know if the Group 44 Jaguar XJR5 was ever made in 1/24?
