@geoff-jowett Wow Geoff this looks like a perfect miniature. Well done Esval for making a classic British saloon from the late 1930's. Something we haven't really had since Somerville and Lansdowne and other long vanished manufacturers.

@chris-sweetman thanks Chris. while I cant recall this exact model Humbers were popular on Australian roads throughout the 50s and into the 60s. I'm always on the lookout for British cars that were popular here in Australia
That 1938 Humber looks excellent ! Very well done replica, Geoff.
A blast from the past! this is the first "My Take" I did back in August of 2020..

Nice video, which I do not remember seeing. I also learned to leave my resin cars on their bases, after a bad experience with a Matrix model a few years ago.

Great re-review, John; love the back porch! Here's my copy of CFY 158:

A fine video review of this one, John ! Your video and Geoff's images give us a great view of this one.

what a fabulous review John, thanks for reposting it. The history behind the car was fascinating.
That looks like a great model. Somehow this model slipped under my radar. I am going to have to look to see if I can find one of my own.

Seeing how amazingly detailed this model is I have, finally, ordered the Esval Invicta Black Prince. This will go nicely with my British teardrop collection.
