Really fantastic... thanks for showing, Family! :D

I think the Atlas looks simply gorgeous with the orange interior, wish they’d used this instead of the normal drab grey (which doesn’t go with the dark blue bodywork, IMHO). A real gem of a model, one I’m actively going to be on the lookout for!

Cheers, Ken

Your welcome Ken.The orange interiored cab is nice colour,hardish to find but not impossible. I also have a 27 lambo and a 41 ambulance,and a 37 skip truck all with orange interiors too..... :D

That’s interesting.. Christian’s #27 Lambo page (both SF and Streakers) lists other interior colours, but not orange (there is yellow, though)...

Your orange interior Lambo could well be an unrecorded variant, Family. Why not start a thread on it under ‘Missing and unlisted SF variations’? It would be great to see a few pictures, including open rear hatch and baseplate! :)

Cheers, Ken

OK... no worries, thanks for this picture! :D You can add more pics (like I requested) when you finally uncover the model. Please make a new thread, though.. it's an intriguing variation. And good luck with your move, btw!

Cheers,
Ken

The interior on that Lambo looks a deep yellow to me.

Now that you mention it, it does look a bit on the yellowish side. However, there are so many subtle, intermediate shades from true yellow to true orange, it’s hard to pin down the boundary sometimes. It shows how subjective colour perception is (and dependent on lighting factors, too). Thanks for your observation, Alex, hopefully Familybucket will post more pics (on a new thread) to clarify the matter!
;)
Cheers, Ken

A similar one sold at the Rob Freeman Auction in 2012 and Vectis described that same interior as yellow. I am of the opinion that it is more yellow than orange .
