STOP PRESS!!!!! IMP 06 ONE OFF VANGUARDS BASED MODEL!!!!

Post by Jim 'Saltire' Fraser »

Hi all,
something a bit special will be available at Imp 06. We have commissioned a limited run of Imp 06 liveried diecast Imps based on the recent Vanguard metalic blue saloon. The model will have the Imp 06 logo on the roof, a tartan stripe (tastfully done, honest :wink: ) and a special commerative back drop for the plastic box with Stirling Castle and Wallace's Monument.
This model will be available exclusively at Imp 06 via Imp Club Regalia, an initial run off 100 have been made and if there is enough interest, a second batch might be possible after the event.

Kind regards, Jim

What a great idea this was: very inspired !! Bought one, of course, No. 111 from the Regalia tent at Imp 06. Loaded with brill memories :wink:

If it was a production run of 100, you've a pretty special model there :lol:

Are these still available via regalia for those not able to attend National?

I think the intial run was about 115 and it was rumoured that additional numbers would be ordered if there were the demand.

Shame you couldn't make it Pete as it was a great event (although if you had gone I wouldn't have achieved 3rd place in best Cali)

Hmm.....where did that come from ? Mine has No. 111/200 on the back of the clear cover. One would deduce from that, that at least 200 were made, eh Watson ?? :wink:
