Resicast have announced their release of the 1914 Pattern Rolls Royce Armoured Car resin kit in 1/35 scale.

The model, 35.1185 RR armoured car, mastered by Gilles Sabatier, is a complete kit of this famous British armoured car and contains resin, photoetched parts, brass wire and silver lenses. A specially conceived jig is included for easy assembly of the spoked wheels.

It comes with a fully detailed engine and interior and all hatches can be assembled in open or closed position.

Probably not for the beginner it comes with a 40 page instruction book.

Price: 110.00 euros

A note from Graham at Resicast says: “A CD with all the pictures taken during assembly plus other photos of the actual vehicle is available. Unfortunately in this time and age I have to charge an extra 5.00 euros for this, this CD will only be available direct from RESICAST and will only be available with the actual kit.”

Although not cheap I think this will be good value for money. I used to pass a Rolls Royce Armoured car - “Sliabh na mBan” on morning runs in the Curragh Camp when I was in the Irish Army. Hmm…Might be an idea for a dio.
