Hi
I have seen the Esso Engine only once. The West seems to be more common. Until now I had no closer look at the "Specials" as there are a lot of items and engines I "need". 
I have seen a green-yellow one some time ago. I had no closer look at her. I am after two D8s first (a light blue based and the one one can still get in the UK), then the boat and then the locomobile and then the showmans engine....

Very nice Andreas. I like the graphics on the box too. Don't see them like that anymore

This is a nice engine to finish off a collection, but it reminds me of some of the recent Mamod special editions.
Am I missing something, or did they just paint the base red and slap a sticker on?
