You should have a couple of Mini's driving into the back.  Be ideal for a Scalextric Italian Job racing set.

Hehe, now THERE'S an idea!  :thumbsup:

The Mini's would have to be darn quick though, with that Super Challenger in the back the bus was UBER-fast!
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Getting the Mini's would be easy but the Italian police cars?  Fiat?

Fiat Giulia.  Quick search shows you can get a slot cars of the Giulia, someone better versed than me could tell you they're the the right versions or not.
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

In the original film the Police cars were Alfa-Romeo Gulias. But the body tooling for them was made in good old UK, at Pressed Steel in Cowley where I worked at the time.

This must be one of THE most drifted threads there's been on here.  ;D

My bus could do that, and lean on the outer barrier, from the INSIDE lane!  ;) ;D :lol:
