Not so perfect. Peeler is a boy in The Job, and will have no knowledge of such a fine automobile. He comes from the Allegro/Metro generation. Mere pups.

I'd like a Granada Mk1 or a River SD1.

Paul, I think that was an Aprils Fool, but I'll let you know if it happens.
And ....
Don't go cottaging in Ayton. You'll get into bother.

Happy to put on a DBN game if anyone fancies it.

See, and there you have it. The Rover SD1 was a P.O.S. and only County Mounties had Granadas. Real Policemen loved the Rover P6 3.500 Now that was a proper Police car. The Triumph PI at a pinch, despite the fact you had to put a paving slab in the boot to stabilise it on corners.

I'd very much like to get my ancients/medievals out this year. Have Lion Rampant Crusader era stuff or could put out a Republican Roman WAB army.

42mm Shiny would be another go-to as I'm keen to keep these gaming instead of gathering dust.

WWII in any scale an equally keen suggestion!
