Amazed that this set hasn't gone yet, people were clambering all over each other for them a while back!

No idea, someone called sonicboomgirl in Gorey, Wexford.

 

Found the ad. Sonic boom of a price, anyway:

It's not a 'real' replica anyway of a Mark III Restaurant given the incorrect windows and roof!

 

Who does the correct Mk3 sides? SSM or Mousa / Bill Bedford or somebody else?

Oxford Diecast Bus Éireann Expressway Irizar i6 reduced to €18.24 each at Hatton's:

https://www.hattons.co.uk/961180/oxford_diecast_76ir6008_bus_eireann_expressway_irizar_i6/stockdetail

I can't help but feel that both IRM and Oxford Diecast are kind of skirting around the more "classic" liveries that would have wider appeal, and instead going for less popular / less common / less compatible liveries.

That said, when the IRM 22000 ICR's and grey Murphy Models 071's hit the shelves, demand for this particular bus model will probably pick up!

They also had MM5217, by the time I hopped on there, drat, gone. 

 

8113 is what I'm praying for. Hatton's don't distinguish between the 071's / 111's. They had one the other day, possibly 078, DCC fitted, for around £382 GBP. Sounds a lot but already DCC fitted, and it's way cheaper than the eBay gougers, so gives me hope.

I hate you so much.

😂😂😂

Maybe I could sacrifice a few of my Mk2D's as a trade for your 8113!

Nearly sure that aul' Billy from Adverts.ie had the same wagon listed on eBay at the same price a few days ago. Billy buys anything Irish on Adverts.ie, then lists it for twice the price on eBay. His stuff rarely sells, so he's probably hemorrhaging a lot of cash.
