I found it real difficult to find a red interior #27 in mint condition. So was delighted to get this example.

That is a real good example, nice and minty, not a chip in sight.

A couple of beauties there mm! I have to agree that Merc is rather swish with the red interior.

The MB MB ( ;) ) 230 SL is a beauty. I'am looking for this variation, too. But I only see playworn models with it's windscreen missing, etc. They don't appear that often, so well done Motorman!

Well done Alex on the ARAL tanker, it looks great but for only a Fiver, looks even better!!

Not sure what has happened with the wheels on the GT 40, a little bit of adjustment needed on the machine I think, but a nice factory oops!

The Aqua-Green baseplate is the colour that is supposed to exist on the Blue #69 drop-top Rolls-Royce baseplate, but so far no examples have turned up in our collecting community or any pictures from anywhere else... :cry:
