Hi Live in Fife Scotland and keen to Aquire some larger scale(1/6, 1/8, 1/12)Tanks or Tank Transporters for personal enjoyment.Have two Cobi 1/12th Tigers but interest has now moved to RC Vehicles.Tried without success to get a HG P806 Trasped trailer(1/12th)for the HG 802 Tractor(any advice welcome).Have several 1/35 builds and running out of space but always looking for something bigger(will make space subject to partners approval)1/16th not really of interest.Have a Heng Long 1/16 Abrams.The cost of the full metal tiger and Abrams(1/6 1/8)from China is frankly bizarre along with Armortek UK.If anyone has an Armotek Leopard for sale second hand would be interested.Worked on Antar and Scammell Commander in the 80's hence the interest.

Another colonist here. I had the good fortune to be in St. Andrews a few years ago. Scotland is beautiful; were it not for friends and family, I think I would try to emigrate to Scotland for the rest of my days. But, alas...

I experienced the battlefield at Collodin at 12C with rain. I thought I would have to "take the low road" after that. Have you been there, MacAdder?

HDP. Your usual precise spelling has gone a bit to pot with the spelling of Culloden.
