Cool Schuco Rover 75

Does anyone know if the Rover 75 models produced by Schuco are all LHD? I have just acquired a Moonstone pre facelift and it’s LHD, not bothered about but just wondering.

I’m in the process of trying to see if I can get a company to produce a Tourer/ZTT. Most manufacturers want the minimum amount to be a 1,000 units.
Would like to get them in kit form with the option to either build MK 1 or MK 2, Tourer and ZTT.

Also building a 1928 Bentley with the most unhelpful instructions. Another trial and error model. Taken me nearly a week to build the chassis. Made by Wills Finecast in white metal.

Still it keeps my mind occupied in these troubled times.

I understand that "Oxford " range is happy to do low volume. They have been in talks with a friend of mine who has a Jaguar Mk10 about making a model of it, although there are less than 100 actual MK10/420G left on the road. They approached her at a show, so might be a possibility.

All my Schuco 75s are LHD Bob

I’d possibly be interested in a ZTT too. I’m assuming they’d be 1:43rd scale?

Aiming for the 1:43rd scale but wanting it in kit form, however I may have to settle for the readymade models.
Been given another option, never gave them a thought, and that is Oxford models. I’ll contact them tomorrow.
