I do like the look of this myself.

Was going to ease back on partworks and actually start building some of what i have purchased.

It will be interesting to see how they have decided to do the wheels in this offering.

Apparently agora will put up some more detail about this one next week.

Looks a nice model, but would be an even nicer model of a Jaguar if it was one of the Le Mans 'Silk Cut' Jaguar XJR-9 racing sportscars. Imagine the amount of extra detailing and scratchbuilding that could be added to the engine bay on one of those and what a model it would be in 1:8 scale! Cool Drool ThumpUp
