OK Boys and girls - this thread got a staggering 499 views and no replies. The cat came out of the bag somewhat at Donies show last weekend.  I bought a model many years ago on ebay - in a " stick a bid on it and got landed with it" kind of way. It left its mountings in transit and arrived damaged . The seller didn't want it back which was not surprising at the weight of it. So it has languished in a corner unloved for many years. Its a 1/12 ? scale model - probably even mockup of a Peugeot 307 WRC. Timber with expanding foam - weighs heavy. But is damaged. Now looking at getting the damage repaired and with so many experts in attendance on Sunday it was brought "out of the shadows" Below is Teds photo.

Having seen this 'in the flesh' it is certainly one of the most unusual I've come across and quite rare, I'd imagine. It's damn heavy, too!
I should have taken a pic of the underside as it's not what you'd expect. You might do the honours, James, if it's not gone back into its hiding place Smile

Never saw this post before.

I found some info on the Internet Archive and the last capture of the site was in September 2008.

Seems Everfel specialized in rapid prototyping:

All of the image links are broken on the following pages but this says the 307 is 1/8 scale:

Thanks for that . So now we know 1/8 and there are probably not that many in 1/8 scale out there of anything

I've got a 1/8 MP4-12 it's massive; that looks fantastic - just needs fixing and naughty decals

Everfel.com Empty everfel made 3 models for me

Post  xjr15 Sat Jun 10, 2023 1:34 pm

everfel were a small prototyping company in France who made large scale car models to order. When I dealt with them in the early 2000s, it was a 'mom & pop' (Thierry and Evelyn) operation with industrial CAD/CAM experience and equipment. They used to advertise the car modeling business in Automobiles Classiques magazine, which is how I found them. They made 3 models to order for me: a 1/12 scale JaguarSport XJR 15, and a 1:8 model of the same, and a 1:8 model of the very rare 1965 Ferrari 365P Competition Sports Prototype race car (chassis #0824). The XJR 15's were styling models (no interior) but the 365P, being topless, had a fully detailed cockpit. I still have these one-off models and they are a priceless part of my car model collection. They wanted to make me a 1:8 Saleen S7, but I ordered the Ferrari instead. They built series of car models for rally and racing teams, and they had a line of Venturi sports cars in various scales. Years later I asked if they could make me a 1:8 C6 Corvette but they demurred, saying they would only do it if I would order at least a dozen or so models, and then only with the approval of GM, so that's when we parted company. Eventually their website went away and I assumed they were out of business. They used photos of my models in their AC ads and on their website.
