    Could you imagine a Chelsea tractor having a slight bump with one of these... it would be carnage!

      Yes, but would it be worse than a shunt with a lotus seven, or any other fibreglass kit car?
      They apparently are still road legal, but withdrawing them, so cutting off supply from the NHS, was probably a way to push people into the better adapted motability scheme.

        My brother's first job was allocating Invacars to disabled people in Cardiff. I think he was also responsible for removing them from people who misused them, for example by carrying passengers.

          I thought oh,no, yet another Tiger, but then I realised it was in 1/48 - complete interior, as well!

            Interesting, are the hull and turret top, shown on the top left, clear parts?

              I would think they are as on the box it says "pe & clear parts included".

                  Yes I do JR, since Dave posted I went on a search and have spotted three other variants used by the Germans. These are available in 1-87 scale so will scour eBay and see if I can pick up a couple.

                          It’s a new kit, apparently.

                              Well "Pre-coloured" is reason enough for me not to buy it.

                                It certainly reduces the model making side of it - an assembly project only!
