Riversuir226 Posted December 15, 2013 Author Share Posted December 15, 2013 Thanks lads there's another 201 wrapped up under the Xmas tree and after that (fingers crossed) 230 will be the last to be added to the roster, as far as I know 209 never carried nameplates.

Riversuir226 Posted December 15, 2013 Author Share Posted December 15, 2013 (edited) Great work Tom. You must be one of the few along with myself who prefer 201s over the other GMs. I love seeing the 201's, I m happy when I see the 071's but it's always a bit sweeter seeing a 201.

RedRich Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 I love it Tom. I bet it feels equally at home with the rtr models, and the fact that it is all your own work makes it that little bit special. Rich, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
