1200 GS Die Cast Model any ideas

[Mutley]

Hi chaps.

I was at the GP last week and my son fell in love with the 1200 GS, he has a lot of the race reps bikes made by Maisto, do you know if a 1200 is made and if so any ideas were I can get one, I have searched the net but so far no luck.

Many thanks if you can help.

Most BMW Motorrad dealers stock them. Priced around £30.

Hi Mutley,

BMW dealerships have them - or at least I've seen them in NOG.

Cheers

Wow £30 seems a hell of a lot of money for a bit of metal & plastic, I bought him a Rossi rep and that was about £10-12.

I think he will have to wait, thanks for the information.

In the fastest color to boot.

I actually got mine through my BMW dealer. Cost was £35.00. However, it's of a larger scale than what you're probably thinking of and the detail is very, very good.

AND, you can get them in the more popular yellow too.

Oh, I can't remember what scale the Ducati is, but it isn't one of those stupid small ones you buy for a fiver. Maybe 1:28th or something ?

With the money that we are paying to purchase and own a BMW what do you expect to pay for the die cast model!! Which I might say it is of excellent detail and build quality.

Make sure you get the extended warranty

Conwise, I understand that, but its not for me, its for a 4 & half year old that will break it within a few months, I dont mind spendin £10 and then 8 months later putting in the bin because he has pushed don on it to much etc, but thirty odd, no chance its to much.

I will look around and get him something else, he also wants Edwards M1 but its not out until Autumn apparently.

Thanks for the advice, cheers.

Actually, it is a top grade model - made by Auto Art (I think) for BMW. If you want big bucks (big pounds in the UK?) get the model of the R90S - around $125 US.
