Ps MrChef I drove it yesterday :thumbup:

:haha: :haha: :haha: Oh my you just made my morning sir :thumbup:

And if anyone is interested here's an interesting topic on my senior Tiger I thesis about the extra aerial tube on the rear engine deck that we are all so convinced was a molding mistake and never really there-

Congrats on the drive sir. I'm currently lacking in free minutes, even though I did charge up some batteries in anticipation.

The extra aerial tube is usally mentioned as wrong with the proviso that it is not a Command Tank which does have extra aerial tubes, In any case it should still be removed as should the tube in the correct position because they are wrong in that it should be elevated aprox 2mm and held in place by clamps.

Someone on the Forum said they could not get Abers working one piece Wing Nuts,
There are 2 types of wing Nut in Abers range the one piece working Wing Nuts are Numbered 16105,
Like all things Aber they are top quality BUT far too expensive in my opinion,
If you do want them I would go to Dave at www.forgebeartanks.com
