Nice!  There was a pretty good die-cast thread around here, but it's been inactive for a little while.

Most of them. Some Matchbox sized, some bBurago sized, some plastic models, some Lego.

On the desk. I use some of these as scale reference in product photography. And OK, I don't personally own an ND. But I drive them often enough.

This is a 1979 HotWheels F-100. My Mom hand painted it blue for me. It is the thing ive owned the longest. It is a prized possession.

A new one? I've got one that's from about 2015. I have a bunch of little NDs, but they're mostly at home.

I should have said new to me. Its a silver one. Matchboxs are spotty around here. HotWheels has 30-40 J hooks, while Matchbox has about 5 in a store.

Both. Plus the camper, even though I know mine is newer. 

Fun fact: the Lego Mini has rust hidden inside the sills. Whoever designed that thing knows Minis.

And since I’m taking pictures, here are the Miatas.

And the Rovers. 

This is a little pewter kit that I need to man up and build someday. Learning will be involved.

And misc. Not shown: model kits for a CRX, a Vanagon Westfalia and a Mini. 

Don’t own it anymore, but I used to have a Golf just like this. I also got my dad a model of his 90 Passat wagon.

I think I’m done.

I have this one of my Wrangler.

It's the right year and color but my Jeep isn't a Rubicon.

I have a 1:18 scale model of a BMW M535i from Autoart I'm pretty fond of.  My real car has a black interior instead of the tan interior on the model but otherwise it's pretty darn close.
