Re: eBay madness
I've never liked them anyway, wouldn't want to pay more than £600 personally, the only reason I would get one is to scrap the body and make a Bowaters Chevalier out of it.

Re: eBay madness
Good news for those of us who managed to get one of the original issue GRS LKM diesels:

Typical of most 16mm modellers who haven't ever got around to mastering the black scary art of the spray gun.
The toilet brush being the preferred paint applicator.

Re: eBay madness
Given the more sensible price the one in the link below went for I don't see how the one I mentioned in my previous post can be worth the starting bid:

Re: eBay madness
No it's not and would probably just make that if the starting price was more reasonable, the trouble with these lady Anne's is that there are a lot of them and always the first to cast off when somebody wants to move on to something more exciting or has some resemblance to a real loco.

Re: eBay madness
Should anyone on here succeed in "winning" this item, I'd be happy to suggest a name:tom_tom_go wrote: ↑Fri Jun 28, 2019 8:56 pm Another winning description:
https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre ... 3795236830
Plenty of people seem interested, potentially a cheap way to acquire some RH running gear - and boiler? They surely can't be inspired by the poor thing's looks??
Cheers,
Andrew.

Re: eBay madness
Not madness, a nice looking Regner Willi. If I hadn't recently managed to pick up a Wilma I'd be tempted.

Edit: Sold within 12 hours of listing, well that a great temptation removed.

They're "rare", I don't think you can put a price on heritage.

Re: eBay madness
Well someone likes them..... there is a bid!
The best things in life are free.... so why am I doing this?
Re: eBay madness
Just Wow, no, at the price, but then let us be honest, we have all paid, at least once, over the odds on ebay.
Re: eBay madness
We all sure have.....
It's very easy to get carried away sometimes....Though Anne try's to keep me in check.
