Shell V - Power Collector's Garage 2008

Yesterday, i managed to collect the final Ferrari car from Shell. It's about this promotion, that whenever you pump petrol or diesel to your vehicle, you can redeem these limited edition Ferrari cars for $5.95. The cars cost $5.95 as they feature the real original sound of the car. It's a new feature of these limited edition cars. My dad, collected the final car yesterday and bought the garage as well, to house the cars. Pretty happy indeed. First time ever i manage to collect all of them. The last time was a few years back, and i wasn't so keen then. Now I'm keen to collect such items, as they would prove valuable and mark a mile stone of your life when you look back in time. Thanks to Shell and Ferrari for having this collaboration. And a big thanks to my dad for getting them for me. He paid for it as well. Thanks

Well, having collected all the 7 Ferrari cars, i took some pictures of them and posted them below. Well, here are the pictures. Enjoy.


This is the box the Garage came in. This Garage will house the cars. The cars are collected separately. The white bit of paper is due to them covering a part of the name on the box. I think they spell it wrongly. It's supposed to be "V-POWER COLLECTOR'S GARAGE 2008". Upon my itchy hand i peeled part of it to discover that it was previously known as "V-POWER RACING COLLECTOR'S GARAGE 2008". I have no idea why the word "Racing" had to be there. Made no sense. Haha. Printing error or maybe name change. Fickle minded designers?


This is the Garage. It's an acrylic case that was developed with Ferrari. Costs $29.95 dollars. As you would have realized, i put the cars into the garage already. Haha



That was just the appetizer of the menu. Below I've posted the pictures of the cars with their individual packaging. I'm the type that collects the packaging of an item if it's nice. These packagings really deserve a place in my cupboards. They are really nice. Consider me weird, but thats just me! Haha


Ferrari 575 GTC
