Ok guys, I'm coming out of the closet: I..

don't like re-releases! Yes, I really don't like them. I have two in my hobby room and I don't like them. The XR311 knows becasue the mirrors drop all the time. The driver too: he doesn't look happy either and his shoulders are bent forward.
On exactly that dustless spot on the shelve a Mk1 will re-appear in my showroom shortly. The chassis I found on a local auction site new built and just a few parts missing. This chassis is by designed by the father of the Astute designer. What a screws and bearings involved. And those slotted imperial threaded screws are very nice.
I actually bought this body set from Italy. Because some think only Comorra live in Italy and no parcel ever reaches it's destination the eBay prices are subject to this false thinking. Well it was a bargain!
