The car is obviously a Merc E-class, pre-1993, and as for the trucks either DAF or could possibly be early 80′s Volvo FL7′s. I’m so ashamed that I know that!
Back in the day I inherited all my Dad dinky’s, and other bits and bobs. If I have kids I’ll have to think twice about handing over some of my models – a few model buses of a limited run of 1000…all boxed and mint!
He’ll have hours of entertainment I’m sure…just watch your step!
Getting the anorak on now…

Well spotted with the merc Aaron. The trucks are DAF 3300′s. There are 3 of them in the picture but we have 4 in total.
His favourite dinky at the moment is a ford transit. The newer shape from 1986.
The new matchbox dinkys are terrible quality. Cheap things with loads of crap quality plastic. Shame really.
