Flew to Singapore today on a vintage Airbus 320. Check out the armrest repair. Also saw five Airbus A380 at Changi.

Also visited a local diecast store - Nikki Automodels. Mostly 1:18, 1:43., and 1/64, but I did find a very cool 1/24th scale vehicle…

@donderbeestje well done, a great model. I only have the original cream version. I believe that you have all 4. I think I've spotted a coupe/sedan kit around which would go well with my other.

Meetings all day, but saw this on the road. At first, I thought it was a Corvette, which turned out to be a Mitsuoka Rock Star, a fiberglass-bodied Mazda Miata. I have not seen any American cars in Singapore yet. The road is dominated by Japanese, Korean, and Chinese brands and BBA (Benz, BMW, & Audi). I did see a couple of Citroen, Peugeot, Seat, and Skoda.

Another day filled with meetings. I saw a GM Captiva. GM, WHY? Here are so many better products...

1

Also saw the Royal Protection Team...Yamaha FRJ + MBZ S350

2
3

Lastly, freedom fighters' favorite - Toyota Hilux. Did you notice that there is no rear bumper on it? Many pick-ups have no rear bumper because the bumper is typically sold as an option.
