No, but when a little girl I used to be fascinated with my brother's collection of Corgi and Dinky toys... he had some pretty rare ones including one of the james bond cars and a batman car which I loved.

I had a lot of toy cars whe I was small, I played with them instead of dolls. I had Hotwheels, Matchbox, and other generic cars. Now, my twin siblings owns almost all the cars. I only have the five Hotwheels cars of the Anime Serie :P

I have a mild collection of die-cast model cars, mostly Oldsmobiles but also a few Lamborghinis/ferraris/Corvettes, as well. I also have Hot Wheels and Matchbox cars--- of course, Oldsmobiles are the predominent marque, but there are other makes as well. And, of course, i have my full-sized toy, My Oldsmobile Cutlass ( it's a real car). I also have a few auto-themed coffee mugs, collector plates and knick-knacks in the house. I like cars, especially Oldsmobiles.

I used to collect die-cast toy cars, but my dad "threw them away" all because I didn't pack them away.

Then a month later, I started collecting again, and I have an even bigger collection than before, all stored in a tin. :)
