The French machine is my favourite so far, this could be the one I go for as my second build if I have the correct sky codes.

Although I am not participating in this GB, I hope you don't mind me posting some pictures of a previous Heller Spitfire XVI in my collection. With a lot of modifications.

This is not really a recommended approach, but prevented this particular kit going to waste!
