Ah Mike my dear friend, you have corrected your spelling LIEDO and now nobody will understand my 'Quote' of your posting, you should have left it spelt wrong... :)

I think there was another incident of this happening but can not remember the details, I seem to recall seeing Two examples possibly on our old forum, anyone else remember?

Hello Misterpop, johnboy, mike, fixer and ghosthunter,

I am not sure if this was the other model referred to but I always like the idea of seeing Odell in reverse on a Lesney model.

Here is my example with Lledo on the engine cover of a Super King K3 Mod Tractor and Trailer.
Note the artwork on the box features Lledo on the body above grill appearing on the back of box and both end flaps.

I wonder if Misterpop could add "Lledo name plate" to title of this thread to assist future searches?

Great detective work Yellowfoden and it has only just occurred to me why Mike (Mike & Nico), actually typed it as...LIEDO, it starts with a Capitol 'L' then the next letter is lower case, then the remaining Three are back to Capitol letters, which when presented correctly would look like this...LiEDO, which I see as liedo not LLEDO !!

Sorry Mike, you did type it as correctly as you saw it, back to a Public Flogging for me then... :( :cry:

If I remember correctly the Superkings Maserati Bora also has a Lledo engine, but I don't have one to check. :oops:
