Mmmmnnnn, it looks to me that you, Steve, have 12 coaches with no horses, maybe others can do you a deal? :lol:

The price of horses has just got a little bit dearer. :lol: :lol:

No problem! I can off set that with the extra price a GOLD coach brings.

I like your small gold coach Dave. It looks to be the same gold colour of the larger gold painted coaches.
Could be an early colour trial!
On the plated coaches I understood they were the normal silver with a varnish put over the top to give the gold finish look.

Nice collection of Benbros by the way.

Cheers, Steve
