As pictured. Eko is from Spain, long time scale model maker. My experience is their tricks and busses are usually decent quality, albeit a bit simplistic compared to the likes of Wiking etc. I stated this is a Ford base don internet search, but if wrong happy to be corrected.

Regarding price

Long time buyers may have noticed a sharp increase in item prices. For the sakes of transparency, let me explain:

I obtain most of my goods from Europe. Due to the inexorable devaluation of the rand, goods whose price has remained relatively static overseas have near doubled in terms of cost to land here. This is not just a direct per item cost, but includes postage (which has greatly increased in cost ever since COVID and has not come down since), customs and even bank charges. All are affected as they get charged on a rand value. i.e. Because the model cost me more in rand terms, I get charged more in terms of customs. This all adds up, notwithstanding BobShop applies fees for successful sales as well as portion of their new postage cost structure.

I kindly request that no one approach me for any private deal. This is contra the platform rules and will cause problems. As per the above one can see my prices are very reasonable all things considered. Lastly if you see an item you like, bid on it, don't wait until the last second and find yourself disappointed when it does not come up again.
