Scale model

Looking for a LCI E70 model, anyone seen a nice one?

My other BMWs I have always bought at the dealer, but was wondering what else was about.

Bburago do a 1/18 pre LCI. Modelzone stock it.

IIRC the dealer models are rebranded Kyosho's. TBH i havent seen any LCI E70s yet in 1/18, maybe available in smaller sizes.

I have only seen the pre LCI and want the actual model I have.

So far, I have managed to get my 740 in the same colour as I had, and even the first Z4 with cream leather model.

Yes, have a look at the makes listed above. I have a dealer version which is very nice and detailed.
