I saw what i think is a gem in this lot that could be worth a lot of money,the twist is when it arrived the only model missing was the model i thought could be a gem,i was really gutted,this has happened many times now i admit this time i haven,t reported it because it seems to be ignored,plus i do tend to get good stuff most of the time so swings and roundabouts ,karma etc.I will add this auction house lost a auction lot of spot on lorries and refunded me £200,i had a dinky xk took out of a poly bag in a mixed lot and just got the poly bag

,and the one before this a i think tekno volvo p1800 was missing,when i complained (there was complete lots missing as well) they said they has found the volvo ,and sent me a repainted bentley
anyway rant over,back to spot the gem
There are several good models in this lot,can you guess the missing/ stolen gem,and there is a really hard to spot lesney superfast promotional issue gem in there which in the karma way has made up for the missing gem.

Pass, as well. I can see some nice models there including a Don Prudhomme redline, but that's it

The two plastic veteran cars (Rolls-Royce and Model T Ford), in the middle tray are uncommon models in the UK. These are usually associated with a company called Miniflex.

Is it the car called Gareth? Something about the colour and windows...
I also see a nice yellow Guy transporter, a good silver Volkswagen, an AEC tipper and some useful but not rare tops for the Mercedes truck and trailer.
