Where may one get sample 3d environments?

I want to test my 3d rendering engine as it gets developed, but I am using really lame objects like COLLADA models and such.

I was wondering if anyone knew about a repository where one could download full 3d scenes, like cities, but not full levels.

    There are many, many images of this scene from different rendering engines around, so you have lots to compare your results to.

    Otherwise, here are some other useful model sites:
