I had missed your Post on that ultra-rare #22B Vauxhall, but have caught the one this A.M. on that Tractor with its odd large John Deere rear hubs on it. Those two, along with that affordable Blue/Blue Low Loader make for kind of a tough choice for a favorite between them. It certainly looks like a Great "Lesney 2018 Hunting Season" for you John, and the year is still young.......Great Job! :D Kwakers

Thank Dick, thanks Jason.

I don't buy a lot of superfast, but I did add these recently. Fairly clean models, but I need to find a ladder to finish off the Merryweather.

It just shows you the attraction some models have. I have always liked the Merryweather and that looks like a good one John. The ladder from the 'Yesteryear' Y-6 Rolls-Royce Fire Engine can be made to fit because during development of the Rolls-Royce the ladder was borrowed from the Merryweather in the first place!

Well done JB, it’s always nice to find a good example of the metallic blue Team Matchbox. :D

Latest little haul here, these were hidden away on ebay and went for a song in the end at £75. Really pleased with the gift set (my first after all these years).
