她新買的玩具…

大部份的F1車隊名字，都以以車隊創辦人的姓氏來命名，例如：

麥拿倫 – Bruce McLaren
法拉利 – Enzo Ferrari
道文 – Ted Toleman
威廉仕 – Frank Williams
歴基亞 – Guy Ligier
文諾迪 – Giancarlo Minardi
泰利爾 – Ken Tyrrell
百拉咸 – Jack Brabham
蘇巴 – Peter Sauber

雖然都算好聽，但呢啲名其實無咩創意或意境 – 即係好似中國人的強記，明記咁, 如果有一支中國人車隊叫發記，真係暈低 – 當然呢啲用人名做的車隊名，都好聽過近期一啲用成個國家黎做名的車隊:  Force India / Marussia / Hispania – 點呀，國家隊呀？總之自己覺得呢啲名唔好聽。

另外有一些車隊名的來由，係有小小唔同：
箭隊 – ARROWS 來源其實都係用人名砌出來的，話說當年有五位人兄： Franco Ambrosio, Alan Rees, Jackie Oliver, Dave Wass 同埋 Tony Southgate 一齊出來成立F1車隊，就諗到用五個人名字的第一個英文字母來砌出車隊名，結果就砌出 ARROWS 呢個名。

MARCH – 同樣道理，呢個隊名亦係用車隊最初成立時，一班開國功臣的名字砌出來的：Max Mosley, Alan Rees, Graham Coaker and Robin Herd

Zakspeed – 車隊老闆 Erich Zakowiski – 用老闆名字前三個英文字母再加上 speed。

雖然呢幾隊都係用人名砌出黎，但都算有少少心思啦。

至於自己最鐘意的車隊名，係 Lotus。 但係又有冇諗過佢嘅來由呢？
經典的蓮花車隊 (中文譯名) 的來由又點來？有傳過係因為車隊老闆 Colin Chapman 以前成日去行汽車零件拍賣，看到其中一些賣不出的零件寫著 Lot. u/s (un-sold) 字牌，就忽發奇想用此來做車隊名。但普遍大多人認同的 Lotus 車隊名字來由，就是蓮花的意思，而 Colin Chapman 為何會用花來做車隊名字呢？話說是因為 Colin Chapman 第一次製造自己的車時，用了很長日子，通宵達旦的才完成，個人做到十分虚弱，就像蓮花本身能散發出令人疲乏的效力。小弟對花毫無研究，所以是否屬實，不得 而知。以前好多人問過 Colin Chapman 車隊名字的出處，佢都只係笑笑口不正面回答。無論如何，難得英文名或中文名都咁好聽，係一個剛陽味重的圈子中，用一個咁女性化的名字，但又唔覺乸型喎。

另一車隊名子較喜歡的，是 Onyx 車隊，用一種罕有的礦石來命名 ﹣ 瑪瑙石。
至於賽車型號的來由又點？部份都係用返車隊名字的首字母和年份, 如：

Toleman TG185 – Toleman Group 1985
Williams FW10 – Frank Williams
Benetton B186 – 就係 Benetton 1986

而當中有些較特別的。
McLaren MP4 – McLaren Project 4。在 Ron Dennis 的 Project 4 F2 車隊入主麥拿倫之前，麥拿倫賽車的型號只有M字 – 例如 M23，直至萬寶路拉攏兩支車隊合拼後，賽車型號就用上 McLaren 和 Project 4 兩個名字來定名, 他們合拼後第一部車就是1981年的 MP4/1, 之後一路數落去 MP4/2, MP4/3 ….. 到今天的 MP4 – 28。以前MP4之後是用 / 的，但近期改用 – , MP4 – 28。

較複雜的算是法拉利賽車的型號，因為年年唔同，隨他們的心意。
例如：
1982 – 126 C2 – 因引擎是V形 120 度6氣缸設計。
1983 – 126 C2 / 126 C3
1984 – 126 C4
1985 – 156/85 – 因引擎是 1500cc 6 氣缸
1986 – 1988 就是F1-86, F1-87, F1-87B
1989又轉 640，雖然都有人叫佢做 F1-89
1990 – 641，雖然仲有人叫佢做 F1-90
1991 – 642 和 643
1992 – 92A
1993 – 93A
1994 – 412T1，唔記得4字代表咩, 12就代表12氣缸，雖然之前已經用咗12氣缸五年喇。
1995 – 412T2
總之就轉來轉去。

Ligier – 1976年進軍F1時，第一輛F1車叫 JS5 至 1996年最後一部 JS43  - 用上英因字母 JS 是要紀念 Guy Ligier 的已故好友 Jo Schlesser。還有是他們的賽車都是單數的 JS 5, JS 7, JS 9 …… JS 43， 原因是雙數型號是留給他們出產的房車 (JS 2 和 JS 4) 用的。JS1 和 JS3是 Ligier 在70年代初玩 Sportscar 時的賽車型號。

另外大家可能已唔記得的 Osella 車隊，就用上FA英文字母為他們的型號，而他們曾參與F1, F2, F3賽事，所以他們的賽車型號分別以 FA1 (F1), FA2 (F2), FA3 (F3) 作開頭。由1980年開始 Osella 車隊出戰F1，第一輛F1車叫FA1，之後隨每次推出新車就改最後一個英文字母
1980 – FA1
1981 – FA1B
1982 – FA1C
……
1988 – FA1L
咁就出事喇，賽車型號叫 FAIL，比車迷笑足成年，而車隊那年一分也得不到。

Sauber 的賽車型號是用 C 字頭，因為 Peter Sauber 的太太叫 Christine, 估唔到 Peter Sauber 咁有佢太太心。

Lotus 由1958年起玩F1，第一部F1車是 Lotus 12 至1994年最後一部的 Lotus 109, 當中 Lotus 93 至 100 的型號尾加上 T 字 (93T, 94T, 95T, 97T, 98T, 99T, 100T)，代表這輛賽車配上 turbo 引擎。

Jordon 車隊 1991年加入 F1，第一部車叫原本叫 Jordon 911。但保時捷車廠得知後，要求佢唔好用911，經過一輪商談和送禮 (Porsche 一部) 後, Eddie Jordon 就把賽車改做 Jordon 191, 之後就 192, 193 咁落去。

有時車隊會把同一型號賽車用上多年，則會在型號尾再加上 B, C 等識別，如McLaren 的MP4/2賽車因為表現夠勁，只需少少改動就用足三年，所以就有 1984 – MP4/2, 1985 – MP4/2B, 1986 – MP4/2C 的出現, 連勝3年車手世界冠軍，可說是最成功的一款賽車，到1987才需改用 MP4/3。蓮花後期因缺乏資金，一部 102 賽車亦用了三個賽季: 1990 – 102, 1991 – 102B, 1992年初 – 102D。

相比起收藏了5年多的車模數量，我更覺得幾個月前開始做的這個浩大的Excel車模資料庫更加難搞。

不過搞好之後，之後的一切都變得很順利，包括現在正在為每一台車模貼上相對應的號碼。

記得幾歲的時候就已經很喜歡把每一本收藏的漫畫書都貼上號碼，然後整齊有次序地排列得跟圖書館一樣，看來我還真是3歲定80啊，哈哈。

I do hope Exoto will release Lancia Ferrari D50 in the future.

話不多說，明白的自然明白，大家開始合作了，中東(Exoto)+俄國(Scale Figure)，有錢一齊賺，何樂不為!

This guy Brian Style is so passionate and simply amazing!

He got the Man Cave called “The Zoo” every male ever dream of, it’s also my dream too to have a show room with diecast, combining with cafe and some 1:1 displayed.

今天找出一堆英國拍賣網站過往的成交紀錄，其中不乏大名鼎鼎之輩，但是還是就給這個奔馳拖車+W196R的組合吸引了。

特別之處當然不是CMC的這兩台車，而是那個豎在旁邊毫不起眼的小小銀色名牌，上面赫然寫著50年代車神J.M. Fangio的簽名。

根據物品敘述:
Also small aluminium plaque 64mm x 32mm signed in black ink by Fangio, full name engraved to lower part, purchased from John Marshall Buck, American Model Car Builder

據知Fangio在1995年就仙游了，所有一定不可能是他在CMC 2007年推出這兩台車時簽的，合理解釋應該是這位美國模型發燒友John Marshall Buck在很早以前就找到了Fangio揮豪，然後再加在這個拍賣品裡以達到增值的效果。

當然最後的成交價並沒有先前預期的高，只是360英鎊而已，其中最主要原因應該是很難證實這個就是當時J.M. Fangio的簽名，不過真品也好、貢品也好，這倒是我第一次看到車神簽名的形態，也就心滿意足了。

最近迷上了車模人偶和場景擺設，先後入手了3個1比18俄國Scale Figures製作的手辦人偶。他們分別是大名鼎鼎的Alberto Ascari、Juan Manuel Fangio，還有Stirling Moss，這下好了，終於可以跟我那些Exoto & CMC的精密F1賽車結合成一體了。

這次想提的是TrueScale Miniatures (TSM) 這間以香港為基地的車模公司，近來TSM大有搞作，兩年前就開始積極進軍1比18 F1的領域，分別推出了不少令人稱讚的作品，尤其是打響了頭炮的Tyrrell P34，其精密程度不亞于當年驚為天然人的Exoto P34，當然如果TSM以後可以加上帶車手人偶的配套那就更完美了。

另外它製作的眾多的車隊組合、車手人偶和場景擺設等也令車模收藏家門興奮不已，看來TSM的老闆眼光獨到，一早就瞄準這塊被人遺忘的Niche market，終於找到了它自己增值的道路。

TrueScale在人偶製作方面雖然說不能跟高端的Scale Figures一較高下，但是其性價比之高也的確拉攏了一批新的擁戴者。當然希望TSM能在技術上更上一層樓，可以逐漸跟高端拉近距離，這是我們所有車模收藏家最想看到的良性競爭局面。

最後得知TSM香港的總代理Toy East即將推出一款自家製作的萬寶路車隊人偶，其實細心觀察會發現這套人偶造型幾乎跟TSM的Jagermesiter/Martini/GULF車隊是一模一樣的，除了領隊用會了JPS Lotus的鬍子大叔形象。

但到底為什麼蓮花老闆Colin Chapman會跑去麥拿倫服務車神Senna這個就不得而知了，我只知道這套將會跟我最近入手的Mclaren MP4/4加洗拿人偶配成完美的一對!

唯一的遺憾是車隊制服上沒了Mclaren的標誌，不過這個問題很容易就可以找得到麥拿倫車隊標誌的水貼然後自行解決。

最後補充一點就是最近跟車模店老闆閑聊才解開了一個謎團。就是為什麼最近這麼多的手版車模和人偶其中Marlboro的水貼字樣都要麻煩自行貼上﹖原因簡單不過，就是全球禁煙的結果。至於那這個嗎﹖這還真的不清楚，呵呵。。。

其實正確來說這個紅白涂裝的萬寶路車隊應該是70年代早期的Mclaren維修車隊，基本上TSM最近推出的人偶套裝都以70年代F1為主的。

但這張MP4/4圖片又說明了什麼呢﹖呵呵﹖說明了紅白涂裝的萬寶路Mclaren維修車隊制服由70年中一直到80年代末期都是延用這個設計的。如果再技術點推斷，TSM這次的套裝更傾向於Senna 1988 MP4/4這個鼎盛時期(全年16場贏了15場)的車隊制服。

這個關於麥拿倫F1車隊50週年紀念的3D動畫系列十分精彩，每集只有短短的兩三分鐘，總共10集。正確來說應該是極有創意，完全表達出了英式笑話的那種含蓄。

此外也讓我了解了很多我以前不知道的歷史故事，如果現在中學通識教育都用這樣的方法敘述的話哪裡還可能會打磕睡呢﹖
