      Value is in the eye of the beholder, a black 5 is but a cheap jubilee, a Scot is an over priced pretender

      It's not more expensive, as you need to buy less of it, been modelling in 7mm since the 90's never regretted it for a minute.

      When I rode speedway & longtrack a single engine alone would cost more than a couple of years modelling.

      prices have risen no doubt about that.

      Are you sure you're asking the right question?

       

      Do you need one more? I don't know.

       

      Do you want one (or 2, or 20)? Almost certainly.

       

      Whose decision is it? Last time I checked, yours … .
