Another kit I did about 10 years ago. I gave this to a friend to display in his model shop that he owned.. Closed down since and not seen the kit since.. Shame but I have another one in the loft :-) Anyone interested in buying it please send a PM...

BigGrin Hi Phil, at the risk of sounding picky, which I am not, though the car in your photos is definitely a Williams, I think (and please correct me anyone if I am wrong and I will apologise!!) that it is a Williams FW18 from 1996 and NOT Mansells' 1992 FW14B as in Warthogs' model photos?? Blushing Blushing Apologies for wearing my anorak!! RollEyes

That did cross my mind, shape of airbox intake, nose shape, etc, but wasn't sure so didn't want to look silly by suggesting it - NOT that you do knightyc by actually saying it - just proves that you are braver than me !!LOL LOL Flapper If you say you saw it at the '96 British GP, then I believe you AND Phil, though I wish Williams wouldn't mess with the heads of us F1 anoraks by changing the logos!! LOL Blushing Blushing Confused Confused

BigGrin Please accept my apologies ... as promised !! LOL BigGrin

Can only apologise for the mix up. The signage at the event led me to believe that it was the FW14B. However, now that I look closer I can immediately see that even the colour scheme does not match.
