We don't trade directly at shows but may have a stockist there so can probably arrange for orders to be collected there.

The 'flash motor' should be ready for release well before then barring any casting calamities.

Can I point out that they can not be Wessex suppliers from 1979 they would have been Royal Regiiment of Fusiliers then.
Minor point, but I do love them.

Er... I think the point was it is a fictional regiment. There was no such regiment as the Royal Wessex Fusiliers. Probably a tip of the hat to the old series Spearhead about the equally fictional Royal Wessex Rangers.

Spot on in terms of the reference, Carlos! 

Our BAOR versions will be the Rangers.

Twas a golden age. The Sandbaggers, Warship, Spearhead. Of course whilst the latter two were fun, The Sandbaggers was in a league of its own, fucking brillant.

Oh yes, I'm having one of those Capris (albeit it'll be marked up as a polis motor...), been looking for something like that for ages!
