Nice review Karan. Is it 1:18? Yeah, like you aptly said, the design looks amusing and the headlights seem weirdly aligned in side profile. The grille could have been better too. The rims look totally out of place. Wonder, why Morgon went with this design. Or maybe its Bburago making a good car look bad.
BTW, Congrats on turning into a Posting Freak.

RE: Burago Morgan Aero 8 aka RETROD
^^ Thanks Sid....yep it's a 1:18, I stopped mentioning scales now coz almost everyone on the forum makes 1:18 purchases and I too have stuck onto this scale for sure. Now I understand why 1:18 and 1:43 are the most popular scales - 1:18 coz the size and detailing is just plain awesome and 1:43 coz I think most collectors switch to that scale when they have accumulated a lot of 1:18 scale cars and then space becomes a major major crunch. So 1:43 seems the logical way to go - easier on the pocket, lots of variety and absolutely no space problems.

Why do you find the rims out of place?? I think they look really cool. Agree with you on the grillwork, could have been a bit better. But overall, I just love this model, Burago have made a home run here.

Dude, congratulations!
I have the same one and I think the wheels sealed it for me. They look so classy.

Agree totally Gugga, the wheels are simply amazing and the red brake calipers and the thin sleek spokes of the rim help to make the car look real dynamic.
