I got my Hornby 8f on ebay, brand new for £35. It was on a "buy it now" or "best offer". I pitched my best offer a good bit below the buy it now price but still close enough to tempt the seller. He took my offer and so I had no bidding frenzy which almost always seems to happen in the last couple of minutes on a desirable item. It's a good model and runs very well. I think I've mentioned before that it has been renumbered and expertly (medium)weathered. Really looks the part.
48111 - I think you should treat yourself to a model of 48111. If I win the lottery this weekend I'll get you one!
