Thats good mate, better than some other forums that have like 300 rules you must follow, and the crazy mods (well okay, mookie's a bit crazy! :lol: ) who have a go at you for no reason.

:soapbox: Just a little niggle - I think these ebay postings are going down the ovalchat route, where people started to post good stuff to banger and thus push the price up and annoy people who were wanting to bid but couldn't because the price had risen way above their max - would it be possible not to post links to auctions which involve something that numerous members here may want to bid on - leave them to find it for themselves and don't advertise it? Other ones are fine, for diecast which is like waaay out of everyones budgets and stuff

rant over

Think i need to quote this, Jon please can you not post links to stuff we all might want to bid on, as mookie said. Not trying to play moderator, but i agree with mookies post, and i know a few of us planned to bid on those granadas.

Mini's are naturally expensive, although that seems a tad high considering its basically snapped.

SO CLOSE... BUT LOOK AT THE DESCRIPTION.

but seeing as it had no interior when I bought it I figured it was halfway to becoming a banger anyway

The person who buys that is going to be scammed BIG TIME as it has no interior at all, which ruins the whole banger experience.
EDIT: LAME:

I had no photos of the inside of the car and didn't want to put in anything that wasn't accurate to the day it was raced.

Like anyone will look at the inside of the car and go "Oh, he's forgotten the fire extinguisher, thereby making it not real"

Jon, whats your problem with his work?

Ever painted a Banger? The paint runs into the inside.
And his painting is amazing.
Also, nobodys getting ripped off without an interior, or were you being sarcastic? Which didnt really work.

The only fault i can give him is the fact he wrote "bear" rather than "bears" :P.

Jon, thats the most awesome banger I've ever seen on ebay - my Gits Standard Vanguard had no interior and that was one of my best, I didn't want to go to the trouble of finding an interior which a) fits and b actually looks good. I don't think the person who wins that piece of art will give a flying monkey scrotum that it doesn't have an interior, it is a bloody awesome model

and have you ever noticed none of Wes's models have interiors when he actualy could put them in!

:blink: :rolleyes: :angry:

Lighten up, when you paint your first one you'll realise just how hard it is to get a good finish..............

Ah, sorry about that - I just saw the lack of interior and was like :wacko:
But the paint job is awesome, mind you.
EDIT: Now I have realised that this model must be rarer than a night when dalags IS NOT jacking off to S.O.D., I take back the comments I made. Sorry for that.

I probably had that reaction because I've become accustomed to seeing models with the interiors in, and when I saw I was like :o NO INTERIOR OMG!!!!!!11, acting in the same way as dalags does when he wastes an opponent on S.O.D.

Which makes it a :wacko: candidate for banger modelling, although this version had no interior so yeah...
