Rob, I swear I’ve been wondering if you’d ever sell to get an actual super car! Sometimes you can just tell something about a person. You would appreciate a super car more than most super car owners. I applaud you on your lifelong hobby, and wish you luck in your upcoming future endeavor! Don’t forget to share that experience with us! We’d love to be a part of it. - Leor (Philly, Pa)
Been watching you for a couple years.. Got to be the best collection on RUclips in my opinion. Just thinking that a 30 plus year hobby of collecting model supercar's.. Is now funding a real one.. Story is amazing and hope you enjoy whatever car you pick. (keep us updated).
i began my journey into 1:18 scale model cars after finding your youtube channel. i wish you ask the best and i hope your super car is exactly the one of your dreams. please keep up the channel as best you are able - its is a lot of fun and great resource for us newbies. FYI - my guess as to your age was very early 40's as i am 50 + and i knew that that looks like. LOL.
Same! well - reborn collector. I used to collect when I was a kid, but after finding this video and a few others, I decided to collect again in my 40's. Never too old for this!
awesome news Rob! Loving your channel and will keep following your new journey. All of us have the same dream to own a super car. You are my inspiration
ive been watching you forever, i think for almost 3 years and i am very sad that you are selling all these models but im even happier that you have decided to pull the plug and try to achieve a real supercar, and I will definitely stay here to see the day that happens!
sad to hear but its your own choice. hope to see more videos on this channel about the upcoming supercar and/or model cars too! would be interesting to see a video about the models you are gonna keep
Rob, Thanks for sharing all your models through youtube I for one have really enjoyed them especially the tutorials. I've learnt a lot about model building through them, hope you'll consider continuing them. Good luck with you're hunt for a supercar and enjoy!
Sad to see that Rob… I admire your collection for a long time man… my collection is 1/3 of yours, but I managed to get myself a real Nissan GTR while collecting these models… you’re doing the right thing, get yourself a supercar while you can still drive brother… hope to see your more of your videos in the future…
I respect your decision, man!!! I have to say that you're my biggest inspiration for me to start collect supercar and share with people. Wish you luck!
Rob I've been watching your channel for a long time, you actually got me into the hobby of collecting model cars and in really glad to see you're finally getting a supercar for yourself, be sure to share us the car you end up buying! Good luck man.
Man I respect ur decision I am a collector myself and losing those beautiful art pieces are heartbreaking but u gotta make some sacrifices to achieve something even greater…… hope u okay mate ✌🏻
Good luck Rob, yes we want to see your achievement on your super car, just share if you have it.. You look young at your age and i agreed while you can enjoy it buy your dream car :D .... By the way your are the GOAT on reviewing a model car....
Robs Epic collection and channel for collectors. I agree 30y is a long devotion for this collection, and all the best for super car hunting. Most of my AA signature purchases have been inspired by your channel Cheers
You have to vlog the buying journey. Whatever you buy get an independent survey on the car before you buy. You could end up buying a money pit. Research maintenance costs. Gallardo potentially can cost around £k’s a month to run over a year. Insurance, maintenance etc. make sure you budget. I’ve had a few.
Yessss Rob, getting a supercar is a great thing, although the models are awesome, having the real thing is even better I'd assume, I hope to get one in the future as well
I sold my supercar to start again my model car collection. Too bad to hear that you are going to do the opposite. This hobby gives joy. Owning a supercar is not so much satisfying
Wow, awesome - can't wait to see what car you are going to go for!! Ive followed my dream and bought a beautiful white Mclaren 570 GT in June this year! My own model car collection has been a real personal inspiration on what car to buy for me :)
I have a question for you Rob. I have been looking at your Ebay store and i see that you dont ship to Norway, and i was woundering why? You have some models there that i would be interested in but i cant by them. Thank you. Like you i have been collecting model cars for over 30 years and still do. I sold alot of model cars myself because i got a bit tired, but now my interest are back again, so i just stared collecting again.
Congrats! Ferrari! Definitely up for watching the shopping process! Am curious what you consider supercar in that budget. I know the 360 Modena manuals are great values now & buyers love them(sadly the 430 tho a nice improvement are quite higher). The 360 was the first Ferrari Sam of "Seen Through Glass" here on RUclips bought & has really enjoyed. Maybe his shopping/ownership process may be helpful for you? Best of luck! Mark, from far away in rain everyday Florida ⚡🌧😩😆
Cheers, yes I follow STG and Sam loves his 360, but I would prefer the 430 over the 360. When I have the money to buy, I will test a few different models
I think it's so fitting how you drop your dramatic video news on 9/11. We have chatted via Instragarm and wish you all the very best with the sale. I started collecting diecast 1/18 scale Ferrari F1 cars back in 1996 and have hundreds in brands like Exoto, Minichamps, Mattel and CMC plus more and have spent a fortune over the years. The hobby changed for me about ten years ago when so many new models and new companies started to exist. It started to get out of hand. So now to keep the collection alive I buy the two drivers in 1/18 Bburago Ferrari F1 cars every year and that's it (and a few Lego models). I haven't sold any of my models (I don't have space to display them all sadly) and do own my own classic 1/1 scale Ferrari, so I know where you are coming from. If I had too I'd sell all my models to keep my actual Ferrari in a heartbeat. Stay on RUclips in one format or other. Cheers buddy.
Valentino Rossi retires: - good, the right moment has come - Kimi Raikkonen retires: - I don't care too much- Robs sells his entire collection: - NOOOOOO, WHYYYYY 😭😭😭😭 the world is so cruel 😭- Jokes aside, it's an uexpected news that makes me very sad, however I hope you'll enjoy your new supercar: maybe a 360 Modena or a f355? Or a mk1 Gallardo? With a manual gearbox it will be the top. Thanks for all your wonderful videos and also for the tips you've given to me in this last 5 years 👍👍👍
I enjoy your channel even though I'm not really a supercar fan. I'd like to buy a model and I checked the ebay store there but the postage to the UK is quite expensive.. I've thought the same thing about my collection a few times although it would maybe get me a Honda Civic lol
Dude checked out your eBay page .. def some awesome cars in your collection however some of the cars are slightly overpriced ! I religiously follows eBay market place daily and have a collection myself .. anyway good luck hope you get the car of your dreams
But remember, the prices on eBay are higher to cover eBay's extortionate fee's, you can buy any of my models direct from me by either email, Instagram or Facebook as I said in the video.
I've already felt a crunch myself for my collecting. I want to only keep the diecast that fit on my shelves and pegboards (which isn't more than 50 pieces of 1/64 and 1/43). I stopped most of my 1/18 due to space conservation except for a select few. Do I dare look to see if the ones I'm interested in have sold already? Or are for sale. I'd love to come along for the journey of your first supercars. We often see the influencer with their numbers of cars and no passion so why not actually watch someone who will be truly "kid in a candy store" with his first car. Who will enjoy the vehicle, and not leave it parked. Let's go!!!
sad to see you sell off your collection but it’s for your own good wanting a supercar, can you make a video showing the models you’ll keep ? thanks for your help over the years bro!
I don’t see why you have to totally quit collecting and making videos Rob. People enjoy what you do. You built a great channel here. I think it would be irresponsible to quit now. If you don’t want to collect, auction the models off when your finished with it. I applaud you getting a super car, wish I could have one myself.
I’m selling my “Entire’ collection….but I’m keeping some…not ‘Entire’ then is it? Great collection. Audi R8 V10 early model would be a good shout. £35-45k gbp. Mclaren 650S below 100k and Gallardo £55-65k. No actual need to spend a fortune and break the bank.
Hi Rob I would never have guessed you were 52. You look like someone in their 30s. It’s a crying shame that you are parting ways with the vast bulk of your collection. Please contact me as I am very keen on one or two from the collection. 👍🏼
dream big bro 52 is a still young age full of life and better with a real super car 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻 btw if you have the opportunity to grab a Ferrari 488 Pista, F8 Tributo or Lamborghini Aventador that would be super awesome

Do a video of what you're keeping, would be interesting to see.
I thought you are around 30-40, you look way younger than you are and I believe you can buy and enjoy your supercar. We are rooting for you!

Thanks Rob for helping me with my model collection journey.
Agree with most comments, if you can, do it and enjoy it. After all, you worked for it so enjoy the dream! All the best.
Super happy for you Rob and excited to see the videos of when you go shopping for the ferrari and would love to see the process.

Cheers
Yes on making a video of purchasing a super car! Can’t wait and good luck
I’ll be praying for you unti your channel becomes ROBS SUPER CARS.
You have to vlog the buying journey. Whatever you buy get an independent survey on the car before you buy. You could end up buying a money pit. Research maintenance costs. Gallardo potentially can cost around £k’s a month to run over a year. Insurance, maintenance etc. make sure you budget. I’ve had a few.
I wish you the best! Fulfill your dream! :)
Thank you so much!!
Definitely excited for your journey to getting a supercar, do post some videos of it :)
Will do!
Yessss Rob, getting a supercar is a great thing, although the models are awesome, having the real thing is even better I'd assume, I hope to get one in the future as well
I sold my supercar to start again my model car collection. Too bad to hear that you are going to do the opposite. This hobby gives joy. Owning a supercar is not so much satisfying
Yes you should do a video documenting the buying your supercar
Good luck, and I'll be watching!
All the best for acquiring the super car purchasing, definitely would be intresting to see a kind of average joe to acquiring his dream car 👍🏼
Wow, awesome - can't wait to see what car you are going to go for!! Ive followed my dream and bought a beautiful white Mclaren 570 GT in June this year! My own model car collection has been a real personal inspiration on what car to buy for me :)
thanks for the great car modell videos and especially the custom built series, really learn a lot from it! I will keep watching your videos ;)
More to come!
Videos on the super car will be great! Make sure you do your due diligence on each, as I’m sure you will.
I wish you all the best as you hunt for your first supercar...and of course, I'm staying subscribed to the channel.
I appreciate it!
Good luck Rob, cheers for the great content and inspiration on my own builds. Enjoy that supercar mate!
good luck Rob,

I sold alot of model cars myself because i got a bit tired, but now my interest are back again, so i just stared collecting again.
I ship world wide, and have already sent models to Norway. Email me please and I can sell there and ship to Norway. RobsModelCars@outlook.com
What type of Ferrari or Lamborghini are you considering?
video soon
I'm late coming to this post, but i hope you've kept the F40's because you've got the best i've seen. And getting an accurate F40 isn't easy!
Congrats! Ferrari! Definitely up for watching the shopping process! Am curious what you consider supercar in that budget. I know the 360 Modena manuals are great values now & buyers love them(sadly the 430 tho a nice improvement are quite higher).

Who else was shocked to hear that he's 52?
Thanks your too kind
Its sad I cant do sell so much cool models. Hmm I hope you have a lot of fun with youre new car! I do keep collecting and reviewing on! :)
Its the time to get 1:1 super car 🤩.
Keep it Simple. It's just eye-candy in the end. You have a finite amount of time to live, so live more.
Well said!
This has been a long time coming. :) I hope you factor in the expensive maintenance and gas.
I hope so too!
If I had to pick 20 or 30 cars to keep out of a collection of 300 I don't think I would be able to do it.
It was very hard
Good luck Rob and wish you find your REAL super car. Enjoy. Both Ferrari and Lamborghini are nice one.
Please do share your journey with buying your first super car! My guess is it's either a F8 Tributo or Huracan Evo :)
I can definitely understand where you are coming from, some iconic Ferraris are available under $200,000 AUD.
Would definitely be interested in seeing your journey to buy a super car. Share the passion.
You got it!
"ENTIRE" doesn't mean "I'll keep some" 😉 Looking forward to your 1:1 model purchase but *BEWARE* of the COVID-19 tax in buying a car at the moment...
LOL, but it was a shorter title than saying 'I'm selling 300 of my 320 models'
@@ROBSMODELCARS I guess saying I'm selling 94% wouldn't have worked either 😜
