Hearing obviously isnt what it used to be Glen, its my age you know!!

It is a fair bit since I spoke to them and at that time the demand wasnt sufficient to justify a run (remember there are tow different moulds needed). I will however speak to them again to see if there are any plans.

Thanks Richard!

But from the link, it looks like they only do Damian's Jaguar V8S



Seriously, these kits are very detailed and rare models, I highly recommend them.

Looks like they have just changed the advert, appear to be V6 kits left but possibly not any V8 kits*. Built models still there. Worth getting in contact direct if you cant see the one you want.

Unlikely as I just bought one. I know mine isnt a V8 but it looks and pretends like one!!! The sheep in wolfs clothing indeed!!

Just grabbed one of the V6 ones. Not overly impressed with the detailing or proportions of some of their stuff, but I reckon with a bit of time with some filler and wet&dry, I could get it looking something like mine.

Of course, I'll end up selling my car before I even make a start on it, but I should be able to sell the kit on again at least

I'm no master modeller but with a bit of effort they look okay IMHO.

That's definitely one of the better ones I've seen, good work!
