It’s double trouble this month, as we celebrate milestones for the Bedford TK truck (60 years) and Austin’s Mini Metro (40). We also take a look at the Ford Cortina in 1/43 scale, Tekno’s McCormick tractor, a range of hot rods by Johnny Lightning, as well as concluding our story on Fiat’s 131 Abarth rally car. As it’s nearly Christmas, we travel back to Christmases past and examine some early diecast presents. All your regular favourites are there too, of course, including Desert Island Diecasts, collecting Matchbox Superfast by number, vintage Dinky of the month, our monthly glimpse into the editor’s collection, and over 50 brand new model releases detailed and reviewed. There’s also the latest industry news, plus auction news and price guides, and readers’ letters – it’s another bumper issue packed with all manner of things new and old in the world of diecast.
