This morning I ordered from Jadlam Racing the Italeri 1/9 Norton Commando , which I assume to be a reissue of a Protar kit . They were advertising it at £53.85 , but I came across a discount code (JX44E59J) which gave 10% off , meaning it cost me £48.46 with free postage . Not exactly cheap for what is a far from cutting edge kit , but MUCH better than the current retail of £69.99 .

Looked in the mirror this afternoon and found I was being followed by a mk 1 Fiesta convertible

Latest ones are the 1/24 Revell Monogram 2010 Shelby GT500 & 1/25 AMT Cobra . Both were on offer at Creative Models , so I figured it would be rude not to . Incidentally , usual excellent service from Creative - ordered on Thursday , delivered Saturday morning & , because the value was over 30 quid it was post free as well .

As far as I know , they still are . Give them a ring or drop them an e-mail - their customer service is second to none & I'm sure they'll help if they can .

Saw a Mitsuoka Viewt in Crewe yesterday . It's a Nissan Micra modified to look like a Mk 2 Jaguar that's shrunk in the wash .

I'm pretty sure I can help you there - I'm pretty sure I've got a spare set of Xtradecals for a camo 43 Sqn aircraft in the early markings with the red/white/blue roundels . PM me your address & I'll send you what I can find . Cheers John

Sadly they're 1/24 scale & the OP was looking for 1/35

It's in stock at Hobby Search : http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10341050 They're good too .

Hi Al Here's a few answers Both the RAF machines are in the late 3-tone grey scheme . Here's a link to the options in that kit : http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/image/10341050/60/2 Yes , HLJ are reputable . The paint you're thinking of is Xtracolor . It's still available & is produced by Hannants of Lowestoft : www.hannants.co.uk Cheers John Green Nantwich , Cheshire

Just checked out the instructions online & it appears that the kit comes with 5 options , 2 of which are civilian . http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10088595 Cheers John

A quick search at Hannants revealed that Tamiya do a Citroen Traction Avant as a German staff car https://www.hannants.co.uk/product/TA35301 Just paint it as a civilian vehicle & you're sorted . John Green Nantwich , Cheshire

Saw a cream-coloured Maestro in Crewe Station car park this evening .

In Nantwich at weekend I saw a late 1970s Kawasaki KH750 , or Mach 4 as I believe it was known in some markets . First one I've ever seen

No need - our car park is flat .

I see one of them in the car park at work quite regularly.
