I do know where Colin Chapman's wind tunnel model for the Esprit resides, has his original hand writing on it with notes of aero dynamics.

Wet Nellie is a bit of an icon but not as nice an icon as the Aston Martin DB5 in Goldfinger...sold for over £2m...that was cheap...well in fairness it was the road car in the films not the main close up car which was stolen and never recovered. The two that sold as a pair were the For Your Eyes Only pair bought by Cars of the Stars...however that museum has now fallen by the wayside and most of the stock went to the US. If Cars of the Stars had set up nearer London he would still be thriving but Carlisle has little else to offer the traveller/tourist. The new Skyfall car is a new addition to the stable - no ejection seat on this one.

Absolutely Superb

617 will never be disbanded, but the F35 is not a worthy follower for a bomber squadron...mind you neither was the Tornado.

Personally I want a 1/32 Lanc...don't know where I will put it or if I'll make it but yes I want one. I have deferred on the B17 because of the announcement of the Lanc. However I'd like a 1/48 Halifax to go with the Tamiya Lanc, I also want a 1/48 Vulcan. And I would like a 1/24 Corsair, 1/24 Beaufighter, 1/24 Typhoon or Tempest. Whether I will have my wishes granted we cannot say...but who would have thought that 1/32 Heavy Bombers would be released in such scales?
