There's a screw under the center cap. Can be a git to get the cap out though.

im guessing its something similar to the cosworth!

i have found most minichamps wheels are screwed in place mate!

try removing the tyres and check how the centres are held on! if they can be popped off then bingo! if not then try taking the body off the model and check behind the wheels

What about the Autoart Cossies?

Unscrew the bottom of the model, and there is screws behind the wheels I think mate!

Cause I now the autoart wheels centres don't pop off!

Hope this helps!

or you could get rid of the autoart chassis and replace it with a minichamps chassis then it will be easier to take the wheels off

The autoart cosworth it slightly wider than the minichamps model!

So u might need to trim it a little

Best person to ask for pictures is steve mate! But as far as I am aware they are the same as a mk1 escort on how to remove them!

Just keep trying to do it the way we have told u to do it mate!
