Can someone please tell me about the Bathust Winners Series, as I am interested and a new collector. I am only interested in the 1/18 scale models. What manufacturer makes this series.
I currently know that you can buy Tander/Bargwanna and Skaife/Longhurst 1/18 scale models manufacturered by AUTOart. Are they apart of that series or something completely different. Can you buy biante models of these same two cars. Did Autoart produce a 1/18 scale of Murphy/Richards. Did classic Carlectables make Tander/Bargwanna, Skaife/Longhurst cars - 1/18th. Thankyou for your help.

The Tander/Bargwanna and Skaife/Longhurst cars are Biante/Autoart cars. These two are part of the Bathurst winners collection. we have also produced the 1992 Skaife/Richards Nissan Skyline GTR, and the 1990 Grice/Percy VL Comodore.

If a car that won Bathurst was driven by Brock, Moffat or Johnson, this model will be produced as part of their collections, not the Bathurst winners collection.

I hope this helps.

I have read that you can get Tander/Bargs in 1/18 scale from Classic Carlectables. Is this true and where could I get one. eg. what model shop.

I don't think classic have produced the tand/bargs car in any scale. Besides, even if they had, why would you want it after seeing their previous releases in 1:18 scale?. Not a patch on Biantes version.

Classics did make the Bathurst 2000 Tander/Bargwanna Bathurst winner in 1/43 only,Biante/Auto art did it in 1/18.
Classics have made the bathurst winners from the Lowndes/Murphy 1996 VR to the Tander/Bargwanna VT and did only 1 Bathurst winner in 1/18,the Murphy/Richards Wynns 1999 winner.
Classics have also made the championship winners from the 1997 Seton to the 2000 Skaife and all in 1/43.

CC had to produce the tander/bargs car in 1:43 to continue their bathurst winners series.
and i suppose the CCs have a different market to the biantes. after all, the latter do cost about twice as much.

Regarding the Bathurst Winners Collection.
Is there any cars that would not be able to be made, eg:due to licencing etc?
