Yep. Aren't we already in Q2 2026? So theoretically due anytime now.

Who knows? the goalposts move more often than an orange man changes his mind

I've got both the Mogul and Manor down for Q4/2026. I hope so because I have 4 WC/BB to purchase!

i wouldnt mind a GW mogul--is it likely to appear in the next few years ?  Ive already got a very nice kit built one--no idea who built it.

Modified hall?..... maybe. Got 3 dapol ones--will i even notice the difference ?

Spam can ? highly unlikely--even if it does show up this year.

Sonic prairie.  I ought to really--after all i did hack 2 farish ones to make 42xx and 72xx.( well--kinda )

EBay has pretty decent reporting tools, no need to track anything separately. Obviously your prerogative to do whatever you deem necessary - but there are a lot of misconceptions on this one and I think it's important to correct, there is no tax liability if you're just disposing of personal possessions. Nuance around high value possessions (not toy trains) and CGT notwithstanding!

Anyway, the buying bit is more fun!

There are certain elements of the regulatory world who love to get one over on you, rightly or wrongly.

So when you've been nicked for spending more than 30 seconds in the middle lane of the M69 by a vigilante with a dashcam who particularly didn't like BMW drivers, and who subsequently had to break the law by speeding to overtake me, but didn't get done because he reported me, you realise the world is not a fair place, and that everyone is out to get you  :laugh3:

I track all my retail purchases and EBay (or other) sales for that very reason.

They can send everything they want, you still don't owe tax!

Of course you and I know that, but EBay loves to send details to the taxman if you sell more than £1000 a year, whether it's a business or not. More importantly, from January to March, people are generally recovering from Christmas, and because my stuff is looked after well (aka stored well) I'd like to get the most I can - not that I'm ever going to be in profit (there's another thread on that, I believe).
