This page, specifically for placing vehicle-related Hornby toy adverts on, was added to oldclassiccar at the start of 2008, as an addition to the main toy cars section. The hobby of seeking out and collecting old toys has grown and grown, and the widespread use of the internet has furthered people's interest in collecting old Hornby models, toys and other playthings. If collectable Hornbys are your thing, then please feel free to use this noticeboard.
Different manufacturers produced different types of toy or model vehicles. Some, such as Dinky or Spot-On, tended to specialise in producing die-cast metal toys, whereas other companies may be best known for their lithographed tin-plate or cast iron toys and games. Whether its toys or models that most interest you, hopefully there will be a page in this free ad section that will be of use. One things for sure, storing a large collection of old toys is usually a lot easier than garaging the real vehicles, unless your Hornby collection is huge.
Some toy manufacturers specialised in producing a particular type of transport toy (eg steam vehicles), whereas others diversified and sold toy cars, lorries, aircraft, buses, coaches, pickup trucks, vans and so on. If Hornby produced this type of toy, feel free to post an advert on this page about it. Please only place adverts relating to Hornbys on this page - the full list of toy manufacturers covered in this section can be found on the main vintage toy ads page. This section is for classic Hornby toys only please - no modern reproduction toys.
If you a regular collector of these toys or models, I'd recommend
Bookmarking this page - the number of collectibles adverts should increase as time passes by and more Hornby enthusiasts find and use this service. Please note that no-one at oldclassiccar is endorsing any of the advertisers on this page, the items they are selling, or the legalities around what they are offering - caveat emptor! We wouldn't recommend paying for anything without seeing it 'in the metal', firsthand, especially important when dealing with old toys that could be inaccurately described.
