I should hopefully receive the first NXWM ones in around 10 days time. Northcord have now started work on the Platinum

Got the first new Enviro400MMC model today, and have to say it is brilliant. Can't wait for the NX ones and the others

Hope I didn't get anyone's hopes up from a new post in this thread lol

I've just bought CMNL UKBUS6014 from eBay - the model of 4718 in Toothpaste livery - for a relatively reasonable price. There's another listing for ukbus6014, but for 64.99, exclusive of P&P, it's a tad unjustifiable. For anyone who may be interested, here it is:

Definitely regret not snagging 6014 and 6018 from Ian Allen when they had them (for £30 a pop) a couple years back.

Looks pretty accurate, the only thing that seems 'off' is the seats inside, but I guess that'd be too hard to have painted?

NMC ukbus6502 now up for preorder on Network Shuttle. Inclusive of delivery (from HK), it amounts to just under £50; still under its RRP but way more than what TTC Diecast or YWBC are selling them for!

You could get stung for import duty too, be aware of this.

Thanks for the heads up! I was hoping to get one (maybe two if possible) from YWBC at Wythall's Running Day in May, if that were possible. I wasn't going to get one online anyway; excluding any possible import charges, £48 was a dealbreaker for me! Haha

I am part of YWBC and I would pre-order if I was you, they are selling like hot cakes.
