I picked up my 1st Austin Montego back in June. While the model looked great, I wasn't as thrilled with the dark color of Clove Brown (which is more like a very dark red) for me it just seemed to overpower the overall lines of the model. Which means a lighter color was a considered option. With that, in October I ordered the model in Cashmere Gold, which I like so much better.

The car looks very good in gold, and I like this diorama.
