I'm not a serious collector at all, but I have a couple of die cast Cobra models. One is a Vanguard Gold limited edition 1:43 427 S/C and the other is an ERTLE of all things. The Vanguard is in a class by itself, but surprisingly, the Ertle is well detailed. Even won a trophy with it at a little car show.

I would like to know if any others have the Vanguard (made in England) and about what they are worth today. I think I paid about $40 for it in 1998 at Autofest in Evansville, IN.
