It's up! www.racepaper.de/race/xmas/xmas2014.htmLast year was American cars, and this year seems to be British, starting with a Bristol Mr. Preikschat usually only leaves the models open to download for a couple days for each one, but often throws in a few bonus models, so move your cursor around a bit and you may get lucky. Anyone else thinking Spot of Bother?

I'm anxious to see what theme evolves. The first bonus model was an air-powered simple racer. It has a rather interesting pump mechanism to fire it. Model 1, the Bristol, fit in with his Hogshead Street series. The second model seems to be from the Circus series he's posted on his Facebook page. We'll just have to wait and see.
How does 'DownloadThemAll' mesh with 'NoScript'?

How does 'DownloadThemAll' mesh with 'NoScript'? They're totally indipendent each other unless the links are generated by a script blocked by NoScript. I'm a Firefox user from loooongtime, and i always had and have: AdBlockPlus NoScript DownthemAll FlashGot (interacts with DownThemAll allowing to save YouTube/Flash videos with on click using DTA) Greasmonkey for some CSS styles mods on FB and a couple of other sites ReloadEvery Save Images (bulk link/image opener/saver). Same tools from years, trust them

The cars are really nice and easy to build. Are the old christmas models gone forever?

Some are still available. Some of the 2012 models are in the Oldtimers section at streetpaper.de. Most of the models are just gone if you miss them

First of all, I have to say a great Thank You to mr. Volker for his models...
I've downloaded as many I can from Streetpaper, but I can't understand why some download link are striked, some other simply does not work, ad some other are leading to missing files...
... but I'm not (so) happy because I've missed all those nice nice Corvettes and Mustangs

Don't forget his other sites (Wayback Machine can be your friend) www.racepaper.de/www.dakar.racepaper.de/Whoever thought there could be a Porsche 911 that would look good and still be a fairly simple build. I just wish I hadn't reduced it so much. Smaller than a Hot Wheel

Todays model is a Rover 2000 Police car.
Really great for 'spot of bother' recreating chase scenes from 70's police shows such as 'Softly softly' and the Sweeney!!!

Getting a little bit fed up of receiving scammell tractor units and trailers for the last few days, they all seem to be the same model with different number plates!! Seems the theme is most definitely circus though!!

There are a few variants. Scammell made a lot of wagons, mostly dating from WWII
