Park Avenue die cast

[brianb]

Hi,i'm new to this site and was wondering if anyone has ever seen park avenue die casts(probably 1:43 scale)
I remember seeing a box full of them in Barrie,Ontario about eight years ago(91-96 style) but don't recall the manufacturer.
Thought someone out there has seen them.
Please let me know.
Thanks,Brian.

I'd like to see these. I never heard of them before. Anyone got pics?

My nephew has a model of a 90's Park Avenue.
I was really surprised that he found one.

Will take a few photos and write down the manufacturer's name when I'm going to visit my brother.

My brother's model year 1994 LPG-powered Park Avenue.

European specifications:

No bonnet ornament
Dummy rear side markers
Amber indicators at the rear
Space for European style license plate at the rear
Third brake light delete
Two fog lights in the rear bumper

Thanks for the replies,
It must be a pretty rare site to see a Buick in Europe.
Some of the changes they made to the car are strange but the one i don't understand is the Bonneville mirrors.
All in an effort to see and be seen i suppose.
Anyways, i'm still looking for one of these die cast Buicks.
they are about the size of a "Corgie" so i may have got the scale wrong.
i saw a box full of them at a huge swap meet and car show in Barrie,Ontario,Canada a few years back.
They were various colours,(blue,green,black)and i'd like to have one but any searches i've done take me nowhere.
I'm looking forward to see the pictures of your nephews model to see if it's the same.
Until then,
All the best from Canada.

I'd be interested in seeing, or even buying one myself.
