I mean, at three hundred pounds off the RRP that's got to be some kind of bargain, right?

Go on, do everyone a favour and buy it: think hoe much more space there'll be in the shop for new kits once it's gone!

Also, does anyone know of any jobs going in the London area? I think the guy who ordered it 'on spec' might be interested to hear about them...

It will also cost some bucks for the garage you will have to build for it. It should be 2m (more than 6') long.

Yeah, more than SEVEN feet long!  :o :o :o
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

At that size you could climb inside it and drive it yourself.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.
