Well I didnt get anything model boaty-related but a book on SS Great Britain and some nice irish whiskey.
What I really wanted was some leather seats for my classic car project alas Mum and Dad couldn't really bring themselves to spend £2300 on some for me! So I had to spend some of my hard saved money from my time in Cyprus to pay for them!!! :((  [size=78%] [/size]

Can you still get spares for a Magnette?
Mine had leather and woodwork and green dash lighting. Best car I ever owned but sent off to sea when we had the Cuba crisis I sold it to my relief for a double tot >>:-(

Plenty of spares available for Magnettes, if you shop between the two companies NTG and MG Spec for the best deals. NTG has all the leather so can charge what they like but at least its hand made to your spec- in my case maroon leather with maroon carpet.
Problem is getting complete cars for less than £10,000 these days, I spoke to John Shorten who has restored over 45 ZA and ZBs and he heard of one recently selling for £31,000!!! %%
This car wont be for selling but its eating away at the budget quicker than I expected.
