Aston Martin wheel arches

 


I hadn't noticed until now the difference between the original #270 rear wheel arch shape and that of the Corgi Model Club issue.


I think the Club have got this wrong.


The #261 looks right.

It's quite surprising as the Club are supposed to be recreating the originals, not approximation to the originals. With modern technology one would think that something as basic as the shape of a wheel arch would be a simple thing to get right. I know that I criticise the models for an assortment of minor differences but I didn't notice what is probably the biggest error they've made so far.
