    New Model Transporter.... Scale that is



    My 2Yo daughter loves my T5 Van, it actually falls in preference order of van first me second when I get home - "veeya home, Dadda home"

    So I've been searching for a matchbox/hot wheels or similar scale for her to play with but the market is slim pickings it would seem.

    I'd seen some online but too much money to spend for a toy. I got lucky in the local Euro toy store with a siku model for $9

    Unfortunately Wrong colour and it's a polizei version not a plumbers Van so a few mods were in order.
