These are few and far between and although I am not actively looking for them they do come up now and again.
Both are 1:76 scale and both based on a Guy Arab bus conversion
The tanker I’ve had for years and was always impressed with the fine detail, this was also produced for Britbus but not with the finer detailing this one has.
The recovery vehicle also a Guy Arab Mk5 again has stunning detail the only downside is the headboard is is Chinese but can of course be changed to suit.
Based on real vehicles owned by the China Motor Bus Company, but look just as good sitting in a UK collectors cupboard or layout.
