Hi,

No I watched the auction online. Some good rare models but once again some high prices. I purchased 4 or 5 pieces that I have been looking for. I did not think the condition of some of the boxes to be good either on some of the models.

I have took the liberty of resizing and slightly brightening Chris's picture...

For anyone else with problems viewing such large image files, minimise the forum's screen area so you can see some of your Desktop area, put your cursor on the image, hold down the left-click button, slide your finger on the touch-pad across and the image will be dragged with it but you won't see the image until you drop it onto your Desktop. When it's on your Desktop, just left-click on it and it will display in full-size.

Hi Chris nice model there used to be an Alcan factory in Banbury but has been knocked down. I didn't fancy much at Vectis so I am saving my pennies for September Pete
