I had a right good touch today,popped into a model shop in Braintree and they were doing all their 1:18th stock at 1/2 price for today only.
So i got this for Ł35
<IMG id=_EKM_PRODUCTIMAGE_1 alt="<center>BMW 320i Ronnie Peterson DRM 1977 1:18" src="http://www.racingmodels.co.uk/ekmps/shops/arendonk1/images/-center-bmw-320i-ronnie-peterson-drm-1977-1-18-8238-p.jpg" width=350 border=0>
