That is exactly what will happen. We are largely of the generation that likes this forum as is.

The other rarity of this tanker is the grey base instead of usual chrome, the model pictured shows signs of wear but in my opinion the combination of base and label means that the sale price was fair.

Yellow and cream interiors are the common varieties, white is least common and in my opinion hard to find, nice model, thanks for showing.

You should be wearing gloves anyway for dog walking sessions. Ghosthunter. That is exactly what we do when we walk the 2 dogs we have once a day. We also wear scarfs and hats and when we enter the house we leave all of the outdoor clothing in the porch and then take a shower, better safe than sorry.

Lovely piece Al and in superb condition, tough variation to find, very nice mate.

The handful that I have seen were all in blisterpacks like you show and indeed mine was acquired at the time in one from USA, they are very rare and hardly ever seen. The brown bodies have quite a few variations with different glass colours and also different label variations, so it is reasonable to...

Hi Al, the photos look like Metallic Red instead of Metallic Burgundy, is this so in reality? Also the wheels look like they had chrome originally and it has worn off over time, the true black wheeled version had 5 Arch wheels.

Well spotted, as you say the flower is always at the rear of the caravan so these were applied the wrong way round, nice find.

Nice, looks like a pre-pro I have seen before.
