there should be. The Coventry boys asked us to put on a stand back at their show. Ive loaded the sig stand stuff and a few boxes of models ready to roll in the morning.

Dirty little stop out  :o ;D
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

I sold most things...everything I took except for a 1/25th snap-together VW Beetle(new)...not even a £3 price tag would shift it.
I encouraged sales by announcing, "Buy my stock and I'll shut up."

It's the reverse form of "pester power".  Children nagging un til they are bought what they want.

Can you not do a quick conversion on the unsold VW? A  Volksdampfwagen.   Chain drive, stovepipe from bonnet and stovepipe hat on driver perhaps?Advert on side "M I BRUNEL & SON ,  JOBBING INVENTORS"  With an IKB registration, of course.   The other option is a high speed VW  that tilts as it corners.............Kit knows MUCH more about that sort of thing  and perhaps could be prevailed upon to offer advice

Have no fear,the VW will be German military...probably from the "Afrika Reich" concept and with guns, rockets or just plain nasties. :wacko:

I'm not so sure that there IS such a thing as a 'High Speed VW Beetle', and they tilt on corners anyway, thanks to their swing axle rear suspension. Unfortunately they tilt the WRONG way!  ;)
