These are not MY new kits

 

Having said yesterday I'll be shopping in my own stash for projects this year, I recieved a box of goodies from the Model Railway Club Second Hand Shop a couple of weeks ago. The usuaul excellent service saw a well-packed cardboard box arrive full of kits. 

However, these are all destined for my new BRM project layout DHAPR Wagon works. Those ready to use lights will be perfect, so is the bike shed. The platform trolleys are superb and one tucked in a corner will add to the scene. Not so sure about the toilets, but if I can't use them now, there is another project in the offing that will. 

At the moment I'm having to avoid temptation as there are a number of Builder Plus kits on offer, some of which are interesting designs. Were I collecting interesting kits as an end to itself, I'd snap them up. But I buy kits dreaming of one day building them - or that's what I tell myself. 

Of course, if you need more kits, then here's the link. Just don't blame me if you get in trouble with the family for spending the kids inheritance...

I cut my teeth on the Builder Plus range. I recall them being really good for their time.

I’m surprised you didn’t include the Midget Models Beetle.

Bill - I have one for the layout and another in the kit pile already!

Builder plus were a refreshing change from the then drab Bilteezi and Superquick (The latter is fresh again) and they were in the range of my pocket money!

And I succumbed to the sales site here!
