Future Cars Wishlist

[dominic_helliwell]

I love the idea of old racing cars, so I go along with the Bugatti from the 1930s. I would also love to see the Jaguar SS100 and the Mercedes Benz SSK from the same era.

As an essential addition to the fantastic collection of classic touring and GT cars, I would also like to see the 1970s Aston Martin DBS and the Jaguar XJS and XJ12.

Hello All,

I would like to see the VW VOLKSWAGEN BUS CAMPER VAN in the samba bus or Deluxe microbus style. That's the one with the skylight windows in the roof. Also has a canvas sunroof.

I think you could have a huge following for older  British fast back sports cars like the E-type Jaguar or the MGB- GT as a youngster in the sixties I always loved seeing them on the road.

[BigDave77]

The E-Type is coming!! Now fingers crossed for the British Racing Green version 

[allnkonury]

I would love to see the best ferrari ever made, the one from the magnum tv series, the ferrari 380 gto/gts in my scalextric collection, would fit very  nice.

I'd love to see Scaley get the ferrari license back! A 1966 312 Formula one car in the legends series would be bliss!

One of the last Ferraris that Scalextric made was a rally version of the 308GTB (C2974); with some clever craft knife work and a respray it could be converted in to a Magnum p.i. car..

In line with the BTCC theme, how about some classic saloon car racers from its predecessor, the BSCC? We already have Frank Gardner's Camaro (in two versions!), the Britax Mini (a bit of a cheat her as it should be a Mk II), and several Cortinas and Escorts.

An easy one would be Gardner's 1970 Mustang, which was an ex TransAm car, already in the Scalextric range.

Then, a works Mini Cooper in the classic green and white stripe.

But the two I really want are a Mk II Jaguar and a Ford  Galaxie from the early sixties. What a 2 car set they would make!

[duncan_kirby]

This years BTCC winning Honda Civic in Orange Halfords livery please. 

[BigDave77]

How about a Lamborghini Countach? it was always my dream car as a kid and I'm sure it would sell in droves

I like the look of the 2017 releases from Scalextric and will be investing in a number of them (the ARC pro platinum set looks awesome with some brilliant choices for the cars packaged within),  But if there was one thing I hoped for that's absent it's a Vantage GTE in Aston Martin Racing's current colours.

I'm following the AMR team in the WEC series and in particular the LMP 1 competitors (esp Porsche and Toyota Gazoo) to go along with the Ford GT's would be great with the Aston's above.

 I'd love to see the following:

Lanca Delta Integrale 16v

Maserati Ghibli Cup

Thanks for reading :) :) :)

Hello from Switzerland,

most slotcar fans in europe are men grewed up in the 70s/80s. American road movies and actors like "Two-Lane Blacktop" (James Taylor 1971) - "Cannonball/Carquake" (David Carradine 1976) - Cannon Ball Run II (Burt Reynolds 1980) etc. influenced us and made us love the "American Way of Life". So why not?

- 1955 Chevrolet Big-Block 454 in grey and his oponent with the yellow GTO

- Pontiac TransAm (Firebird) - Dodge Charger - Chevrolet Corvette - De Tomaso Pantera - Lincoln Continental

- Chevrolet Van - Lamborghini Countach - Ferrari 328 - Farrah Fawcett with a tree ... 😉

- Cars from "Fast and Furious" - "TrippleXXX" - Hot Rods from the "Foose" - "Gas Monkeys" -  "Overhaulin" 

Think it over and sleep on it ...but don't forgett to have a good time and keep smilin'.

Dave,

I am not sure if they did a re-tool of the 4 1/2 - litre Bentley, Alfa Romeo 8C-2300, Bugatti type 59, Auto Union C type. but here are some photos of the cars

I totally agree with the remake of the Aston Martin DBR1. 

/media/tinymce_upload/60c763cda509efe95c1055e08b40a5b3.jpg

I am ready to buy these immediately before production starts. Scalextric can use our advance payments to fund the design and production phase.

I completely agree with Roger from Switzerland above that most scalextric collectors and racers are fully grown men that grew up watching classic films and TV. How about the Back To The Future Deloreon or a retool of the Knight Rider Trans Am? Id also love to see an A-Team van and a Smokey and the Bandit Firebird. 

[Slotcarseveryday]

Hello from the United States of America,

I would like to see the following from Scalextric sometime in the future

-2017 BMW M2 coupe - Long Beach Blue metallic! By far my favorite modern coupe. 

-2017 Shelby GT350 R

-2017 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1

-2017 Porsche 911 GT3

-2016 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S coupe (road car)

-2017 Jaguar F-Type Coupe

-2017 Mclaren 570 GT

-2017 Aston Martin DB11 

Thank you scalextric!

[gorp]

me too live here

but want to see the possibly fastest soon available

tesla model 3

it can recharge on slot track while others must stop to refuel

 

and for those still reading and who build layouts

short single lane piece with use it anywhere connectors like the quarter single

[Kelpieboy]

Oh how much I agree with Warguy9780 Norm Beechey's Monaro was a classic vehicle and I would add the Bond/Roberts HT Monaro GTS 350 (Bathurst 1969 winner) in with it.

I would almost cry if they made a Goss/Bartlett Ford Falcon XA GT (Bathurst winner in 1974 ), one of the truly great wet weather drives of all time and one of my favourites. I know they made a Goss 1972 Ford XY GT HO Phase 3 ( I already got it) so maybe a winning car might be the way to go. I would buy 2 of them , one to race and one to just look at,

I cant believe they havent made a Peter Brock LJ Torana GTR XU-1 ( Bathurst 1972 winner). This car is legendary in Australia and would seriously sell like the proverbial , even diehard Ford enthusiasts like myself have the ultimate respect for this little car.  Like the Goss XA  , I would buy 2 of them.

Other vehicles I would wish for are just driver/livery variations of the XA , XB , XC Fords and  driver/livery variations of the LJ , L34 , A9X and SLR Toranas.

Maybe a series of Bathurst winners fron 1969 to 1980 would be an idea.

I love those Sundays where I unpack multiple boxes and enjoy lots of cars together. As my collection grows I find myself getting out multiple cars in series which I really enjoy. To this end, please let's have:

Andy Rouse's Kaliber sponsored RS500

Porsce 911 RSR Le Mans

Aston DBR1 

And what about some other 80s DTM cars to go with the Tic Tac M3? Merc 190, Audi 100?

And what about some earlier touring cars. Re tooled Rover, Capri, and how about a TWR XJS.

And avoid duplicating numbers, Recent Bentleys have several #84 cars which my OCD dendancies struggle with.

The new Aston Martin Vantage GTE pretty please. Tried to upload picture but this terrible system won’t let me

[Andy P.]

@BigDave77 The system is a bit touchy sometimes. Often it hekps to wait a day and then upload. Alternatively you can upload it to a free service and ink it here.
