Most Americans here pay no attention at all to Majorette. I had a few as a kid, but the market here is mainly dominated by Matchbox and Hot Wheels. However, I am currently collecting Majorette too as well as Hot Wheels and Matchbox.
I do indeed like the Majorettes for the same reasons as you. Good metal body, on metal chassis, and tough and durable wheels. I have not yet seen a Majorette with broken wheels no matter how beat up it is. Kinda' feel bad for Majorette, because they built some quality reliable toy cars, and nobody cared at all, at least not in the USA.
at least 20+ years ago, Majorette cars felt and were higher quality than Matchbox or Hot Wheels. Today they look the same and they don't even have suspension I think.
Oh, and I found the pic of the Cherokee I had! [link] It was more of a mustard yellow. But in real life it did had a metallic finish that can't be appreciated in this pic.
Oh yes, I figured you might have meant gold yellow and not actual gold chrome. I have that one too, but it had a different Indian theme on it. I guess Majorette played on the fact that because it was called the "Cherokee" that they decorated most of the models with western and Indian motifs. lol
