OXFORD DIECAST - The Triumph 2500 in Lancashire police trim, this brings back so many memories.

Another Gem from Oxford a true 70's icon, A car that deserved to be far more successful than it was, a car that spawned a V8 legend, it's self a flawed and unreliable stunner, the Stag was and still is a head turner, the 2500 here in Lancashire Constabulary paint scheme, was another flawed car, but it was loved by those that knew how to look after them and those that own them now.

This version modelled here looks great, the lines are spot on, the recessed glass is a bit of a disappointment, but over the months and years, OD has gotten better and better and the glass house is nearer to the edge of the car rather than recessed back, it's not a dire point, just one of note, but not detract from the over all look of this car.

The blue lamp on the roof, the "Jam Sandwich" look are all straight from the 1970's, and it is where this model shines, bringing back memories from an era, that I remember, just, it is such a shame that the real cars are now few and far between, as cars were just not made to last in that time, but those that take time, effort and an awful lot of money, have this car still in use, and the models keep that brand and model alive for another generation after generation.
