Oxford do lots, modern and older but also give Road Transport Images LINK a look, they do resin kits and you buy the chassis, cab, body and wheels septal you can configure exactly what you want. Again old and modern stuff including decals -

Springside models, Here -
Both mine are the same grey as the chassis. Most of the time they don’t get masked off when the chassis is painted after it leaves the factory.

Yep, and I’ve written for truck model world lots, and did the news and some reviews for them. Think someone from guideline has called me already -
Renault Magnum heavy haulage
richellis replied to Ryedale Wolf's topic in Work In Progress - Vehicles
That’s a great truck to build, a friend has a mk1 mid-lift and I had a drive and it’s a cracking truck. I plan to do a model of his at some point. There is a company in France (arm) that do the suspension in resin (could have saved breaking two kits open) not great quality but OK. I’ll be watching this. makes me feel old but I remember when the AE was launched -

Thanks for the comments, I’ve been buying up a good few resin transkits of British trucks and lorries, I have an AEC MKV on the bench now (proper 8 wheel rigid) and will be making a start on an AEC ergonomic recovery lorry very soon too
