Here are some pix of the Yat Ming "1/43" scale diecast compared to the
Renwall
(plastic) 1965 Corsa which is alleged to be "1/48" scale.
The Yat Ming diecast is approx 4.25" long which is pretty close to 1/43
scale.
The Renwall plastic version is 3.85" and seems to be a scaled-down version
of the AMT 1/25 scale model, even down to the 'errors' in the AMT chassis
being duplicated 'verbatim'.
