Very nice Aral, congratulations. You can definitely cross that one off the list.

Should be straight forward to check if it's the same model by comparing the little nicks in the paint and tyres etc. Some photos can be very deceiving, I usually check the seller's other listings and completed items to see if there's similar colour differences. You can also message the seller although you may not want to alert them. Still a nice model though.

It is the same model. It had little stickers on it which I removed and all the chips do match up. I had my doubts anyway, sometimes they looked yellow sometimes they looked orange so it was just a punt. Even when holding it in my hand in different lights it changed from orange and yellow and back again! I thought I might be onto something sneaking under the radar but obviously I was wrong. It didn't cost much so no harm done :)

If it's cheap enough it's worth a gamble some you win some you lose
