Remember never realized a P3; it is an old Uno43 model built by Madyero/Remember some years ago. |

Paolo, good to hear all is well!
A p3 is a totally different car than the P4 and 412P! Not only mechanical, for the P4/412P they designed a new body! Put them side by side, and differences will be multiple. Overall dimensions are different. Nose is different, f.i. P3 has bigger light-openings and the air-intake is shaped differently. The side profile and the shutlines of doors and enginecover is different. Pedalbox in the nose is different. Rear end has other dimensions.
Here are 2 pics to show the differences Both kits are extremely wellmade, and their shape is probably the best available.

What a fascinating thread - such emotion.
I have resisted the temptation to respond until now. I think this Make Up 330 P4 looks superb apart from the forementioned Ride height issue which I would have thought they could correct (?)....
I still think the AMR/Annecy kit/model captures the spirit and essence of the P4 better but that is still flawed with minor detailing and poor wheels all of these of course can be corrected - at a price.
Full marks to Make-Up for taking up the challenge and making a lovely model. I am sure there will be plenty of collectors will buy the full set......
Where to next - a debate on the best 1/43rd 250GTO?

"all of these of course can be corrected - at a price."
At the escalating prices Annecy P4 kits are selling for lately,you could buy at least 2 of the Make up for the price of one Annecy kit! I have 1 each of the P4 and 412P kits in a vault.;-)Pretty soon I could retire to someplace sunny if I sell them......:-b |

An idea for a new thread: "What do I now regret selling"
I will start off with:the AMR/Bernard Sauvage Kit of the Ferrari 375MM King of Belgium(different from the recent Piranha kit)....and the Annecy P4 Spyder kit I sold last year,and....etc,etc:-(
I especially miss the many models my ex disposed of(literally)during my divorce...... |

Thats an amazing set, I read somewhere only 3 were made by AMR..
Unfortunately, my wife knows the value of my collection... The moment I "pass out", she will booking a trip around the world from the "garage-sale money"(and I can't blame her).
