have you tried searching french ebay? i was going to look into it myself. when i was at le mans a few months ago, there was a stand with a load of diecast stuff. the range of 5 gtt/turbo/T2/gordini etc was the biggest ive ever seen. the french seem much keener on their reno models than we do, obviously!

does that size not mean its 1/18th the size of the actual car?

i have a collection of 1/43rd scale cars, lots of t1's and t2's available and a japanese firm often have the gtt's ln the bay.

i prefer the smaller ones as you can fit more on the shelf and quicker to wash ;)

i think these are phase 1's but i reckon checking ebay france fairly regularly will be a good start :)
