No, but did take a very close look when snaffling my Bathurst 05. It's worth having if you like getting either all the supercars, all HRT's, or Bathurst winners.

Yes, my 1/18 Bathurst winner of 2002 VX Commodore turned up today, as well as the CC's 1/18 charger, and both are wonderful looking models (please refrain from comment FF as we all know your views by now on CC's). The HRT "twinset" of winners 2001 and 2002 look mighty good next to each other, and even better as a trio of Commodore winners, 00,01,02.
One more model needed to complete the quartet of Holdens great achievement and Fords darkest time.
The detail and quality is what we have come to expect from B & T and the difference between the 01 and 02 models, black highlights, plus some different signage, provide more than enough justification (if needed to convince "the boss") to have both models sitting in the cabinet.
Eleven 1/18 scale Bathurst winners in the collection now and a few more just around the corner make for a very impressive chronological snapshot of the evolution of Australian touring car racing.
Can Ford stop the avalanche this year, and what are the odds on a Skaife hat trick, stay tuned for a (hopefully) very close contest this year.

Im still waiting for the shop I ordered mine thru to get it in for me... havent seen it at GW Rockingham either but I not expecting that anytime soon as GW pretty much seem to now suck on what they are getting and when.. cos they have no bleedin idea on either what or when until it rolls thru the door...
so I am relying on this other shop (Great Western Trains in Waikiki Village Rockingham for those interested) to get this one in for me.. and the Rick Kelly HYL 1:43 VX I wanted also...
seriously hoping Biante has sent these ones off for the guys at Great Western Trains .....

The better half picked it up from the post office today (it came on monday and had to wait - worth it though)
Sensational looking model!!! Looks awesome next to the 2001 winner. Only a low number produced which was pleasing to see - only 3000!
The detail is amazing and there is quite a difference between sponsors from the previous year, which you don't realise until you have a good look.
Keep those bathurst winners coming and I know they are - sweeeeet :D

On the downside I was hoping for a brochure. I can understand no brochures for the ATCC cars but for the Bathurst winners I think it would be great to see brochures for these great winners.
We have seen brochures for the earlier Bathurst winners, but for 2000/2001/2002 no brochure :( How about it???
