Wayne, it's wrong of me to comment direct on the Airfix kit, as I've only seen photos of it during and after a build. However, judging by the reviews, and the comments of those who have built it, the kit is regarded as being as good as, and in some areas better than, the Tamiya kit (which I have built.) The surprising thing (for 'todays' Airfix) is it's relatively low price, around £11.
I have spotted that the internal parts seem common to the early '80's MkV though, which was excellent for the time.
Sorry M, back to your thread!
