Weren't Miniart going to do an AEC Matador?

I seem to remember a while back there were rumours Miniart were going to do the Matador, then AFV Club got there before them. Shame as although the actual AFV Club kit looks good these companies do insist on including those damn vinyl tyres.

The AEC Mk.1 armoured car Miniart did a year or two back from what I can see uses the same tyres and wheels as the Matador so if that's the case I'm surprised Miniart haven't done a Matador yet.
