It's a Big kit but can be built into a good looking model.

beautiful models, from a two man cottage industry, who try to bring perfection to the modeller.....


many praise their models and service...……….some knock them...…..


but you have a beautiful model when finished.

I tried to contact Adrian after I had a problem with a kit I purchased at Doncaster, his house phone was just going to answer machine, eventually got him on his mobile he was on holiday in Montevideo i think he said. But Terry was holding the fort, emailed him, and he got back to me within a couple of days. So he should get back to you.
Hope this helps

Adrian is on holiday in Montenegro not Montevideo and terry is rushed off his feet trying to get orders out.mind you having been to Montevideo I can recommend it...……...a beautiful slow and friendly place...……….unlike Rio de Janero.

I think Adrian must also be a magician to produce the models to quality he does they look amazing and I would love to own one some day but I don't think I could do it justice

It's a good thing I don't have any or Speedline would be doing lots of disappearing coin tricks on me!  {-)
