Two cars works really well up here for the minimalist, luxury car look, or if you want to put more on display, you can fit two cars side-by-side on each side of the showroom quite easily. To fasten the parts together, you use these little cone things, which are okay for the most part, but some of them do fall out and it makes me nervous since we have a baby crawling around and could find one that has fallen out.

The roof sign uses two tabs to sit into a pair of slots in the top, the ramp clips onto the base and slots into the rear of the building with two tabs also, and the upper showroom is detachable. Send your Matchbox™ cars through four levels of activity, wind around the spiral ramp, stop to refuel at the gas pump, or ride the crane to the very top on the real working elevator.The cars, trucks and other vehicles are inspired by classic adventure themes to ignite storytelling!

There are exceptions to any rule though, and I now have a branded building to add to my diorama – the 1963 MG1-c Matchbox BP Sales and Service Station. The first one is on the ground floor and isn’t as great as the upper floors due to the green base; some colours don’t show up well here, and the light doesn’t get in as easily thanks to the ramp at the back giving more shadows. We gave it to my three year old for his birthday and he immediately started lining up his cars into all the garage spots.

There are thought to be only between 10 or 15 of these sets left in existence making it an incredibly rare item to be arriving on the market place.

However Majorettes, old and young, are very bloated in size, so they do begin to make the garage look quite small. It’s a must for any serious Matchbox collector, and a great display for any diecast brand that fits. But good luck getting anything other than a vintage lesney or a very narrow car up that ramp – it’s only an inch or so wide.

If the measurement of the products you see on our listing does not work for you, please contact us and we will lay out the perfect product to your liking. The little staircase that leads up to the first floor is a nice touch of realism, but the garage starts getting cool next door – 3/4 of the building is dedicated to showing off your awesome cars through showroom floors and those big art-deco windows. The garage feels a little more crowded, but the fact is you can still fit eight cars in this display quite comfortably (nine if you’re not worried about one being hidden behind that central wall) and it makes just as good a display for modern cars as it does for vintage, since the model is so timeless, and the vintage look is so cool.The pumps are diecast metal, while the gas attendant and two lamp standards are clearly green plastic. At this point it’s worth demonstrating how the rear of the showroom looks, with the ramp providing access. But once you get used to the size (this thing, I imagine, will be dwarfed by the Hot Wheels “Ultimate Garage”, but I know which one is more charming and characterful) it’s really a nice display for cars up to 1:64 scale and you can fit a fair number of them on it.

The Art-Deco design is more attractive than nearly every other model garage that comes to mind, too. Much more awesome is the upstairs showroom, where you have a bit more creative freedom when it comes to arranging your cars. Keep it simple, you’ll likely only need some MDF or plywood, pieces of dowel, some non-toxic glue and paint, plus some fasteners and tools. They arrived in great condition in time for my husband and me to build them and put them by the tree Christmas morning. Matchbox inspires kids to be everyday heroes with 9 realistic vehicles in 1 pack, including an exclusive vehicle with unique decos!

The pumps sit on a rim on the base of the garage, and for some reason I’ve found they stay better when the pumps face towards the garage and not outward – though it could just be my imagination! Product 2: Each 1:16 scale vehicle is highly detailed from bumper to fender with realistic accents like rolling wheels.
