Another corking Cossie!
The latest Sierras are fabulous. They handle superbly, detail is great and this particular livery looks much better in the flesh, especially the gold wheels. I've had to glue the motor in one of mine to remedy play on the rear axle, causing the car to bounce a bit on full throttle, but this one ran silky smooth from the off. Only negative is that the drivers hands look way too big, but the finish is so good on the body I can get over this. Looking forward to the Dick Johnson car, and saving up for the ICS livery in the twin pack. Please can we have the Andy Rouse Kaliber livery car, and the Tim Harvey Labatts one too? Brilliant!
