Sad to hear you've had to give up driving.
I have a massive collection of models, mainly 1/18 & Scalextric but cannot accommodate any more, so I must not be tempted.
One area I have had success selling is Facebook & there are various Porsche groups on there. Also Pistonheads has a model car selling group now as well.
I wish you luck ayway.

Not given up completely!
Kept my Piloti Driving shoes for an occasional Blast on XBox Project Cars II in a Play seat with Force Feedback Driving wheel & pedals.
(not quite the same but gets what adrenalin I have left going again).
It has lots of uk tracks I have been on in the 944's and in the "olden days" ie 1960's when passenger on a Sidecar Outfit.

What is your opinion on my asking price of £200 for the models, is it too much or about right for the job lot?

Due to Downsizing and a house move I do not have time to sort out individual book sales, post and packaging.
After Christmas I intend to catalogue the lot (ie all 25) plus the 4 posters and put them up on a separate for sale advert as a Job Lot.
Probably also on Piston Heads & ebay with a time limit, the highest offer takes them Buyer to collect.

I was a Tipec member & on this forum for 11+ years so thought I would give the real enthusiasts the 1st option

Thanks for listing the books. TBH I probably wouldn't want all of them, and as I haven't seen them it's difficult to put a value on them. I live just outside Boston, but it's still a bit of a drive to your location.
