Well done - I'm impressed with what you are doing to your build. One to watch!!  
Kev  Once again Kev thank you for your kind words once finished i think it will be a great addition to sit next to the MP4/23, im hoping to get the decals on over the weekend and maybe another tack coat of lacquer to seal. would love to have another championship winning car (Mercedes of Lewis from either 2014 or 2015 "BIG HINT DeAGOSTINI"    )sitting next to them both. regards Dan Built - MP4/23, Zero, Deagostini Falcon, Model Airways 1903 Wright Flyer, Senna Mp4/4.

Top work Dan, the paintwork looks superb!! This is my favourite MP4/4 build on the forum by far and I think you're doing a cracking job of it!!

Looking fantastic!
I do have a question about your sidepod details (which look great!)
Did you scratch build the "t" piece you added? Also, where did you get your 90 degree fittings that you added to the intercoolers? I have straight ones, but can't find 90's! Thanks, and keep up the good work!

Hi Guys Thank you so much for the kind words & my apologies for not thanking you sooner. well bank holiday is here and i have a couple of days from work so plan to get this little baby finished. ive managed to polish the body today and it does not seem too bad, i will leave it overnight to allow for any fresh shrinkage before another & final polish tomorrow. ive placed the body on the chassis to get another feel for how she will look when finished. hopefully i will be able to finish off the under body parts i still need to do, so wont be long before she's in her display box . also i would like to apologize to SARON81 for not responding sooner  i will send you a link by PM for the pipe fittings thank you all for looking in Regards Dan dandare attached the following image(s): Built - MP4/23, Zero, Deagostini Falcon, Model Airways 1903 Wright Flyer, Senna Mp4/4.
