Your opinion needed, which VC10 colours.....

Post by Archer »

Hello all,

I just posted a poll here to see if we can come to some kind of consensus on which livery should cover the next Corgi VC10 model. Obviously I cannot promise anything but I will forward the results to them. I'm sure there's a few people here with an opinion on this, so let's hear it! If you don't want to sign up for my forum to vote, post your opinion below but I'd appreciate it if you'd use the poll.

Due to shortages and cutbacks the light at the end of the tunnel has been switched off.

TBH I have a soft spot for the original BUA which was always a lot smrter than it ever appears in photos :think:

But seeing the Ten could wear just about anything and look good...............

Psst, Ben... that one has been done already :roll:

This is a pre-production one but I'll take some photos of mine one of these days.
