From what I found there is not a RAL code, but there is this: iguana green, Daimler DB 6426

May be this will help?

Heres a relatively reasonable WSI model whose price i'm not argueing with one bit! Teeth Of course it has its expected damage in the form of a bent mirror, but what harm i'll live with it, i've gotten a lot worse!











It also looks good with the wagenborg scania..

Thanks lads, the new trailers are impressive this is my first one. This one doesn't have the compartment for storing the ramps though like the nooteboom livery version but its still a nice trailer. I'd really like to see some wagenborg cranes and a wsi ballast trailer model now to increase the fleet!

nice catch there Noel! a very very smart looking livery indeed,do Vagenborg have an ltm1050??? could be an eye catching little lifter?

also good to see you still collecting,i was thinking the worst that maybe you were losing interest

Why is "phonetically" spelt with a "ph"?

... It's better to be silent and thought a fool, then to speak up and remove all doubt

The complex of Newgrange was originally built between c. 3100 and 2900 BC,[2] meaning that it's aproximately 5,000 years old. According to Carbon-14 dates,[3] it is more than 500 years older than the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt, and predates Stonehenge by about 1,000 years.

I had another little package waiting for me this evening.. I love the ac500 models and when its in this shade of blue its extra special, I know its an old model now but they never fail to impress me and their solid as a rock!











With his little brother..





And the rest of the fleet..

The AC500 is a great model for sure. I would like to add the YCC kit to one but haven't got round to it yet.
