Thanks Idris, The only problem I find is that apart from the odd variation, almost every image I find is the White BP tanker which mine isnt.
I was kind of asking if anyone had seen this variation before as I simply cannot find it listed anywhere?

The tank has been overpainted. (If you look at the chipped paint edge very carefully, you can see that the black paint is overlying the original white.)

Thanks guys,
I've always thought it might be. The thing that makes me wonder if not is that it is there is no paint over the green and the front of the tanker is is also black while the ccab is untouched.
Considering how bad the 203 looks, it's amazing to me someone could paint that and yet also paint the front with such accuracy..
