I found it real difficult to find a red interior #27 in mint condition. So was delighted to get this example.fixer wrote:very nice additions Al .....I like the Merc in that colour scheme

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!

Received from Timbo recently a very nice #50 Kennel Truck with light yellow baseplate.

I was at the Scotmodel Swap at Falkirk today. I didnt pick up much but was happy to come home with these 2 for £20 total. The Aral Tanker isnt perfect but for £5 i wasnt leaving it behind!!

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...
