    Just taken delivery of Adam Jones' Leon. Got it from a Spanish seller for £16 in total! Took 5 days to arrive, amazing. Some UK sellers should take a leaf from their book!

    Found out something interesting. R.A.E. models were commissioned by Ray Bellm's late father Tony to make many models over the years, I'm guessing these have similar origins.

    They did have problems with the 2007 Vectra in that demand outstripped supply at first, so there were delays. Maybe it's happened again. It's the same car being sold at the VXR outlet.
