Stunning!
I'm not sure, but I think it was stored at Biggin for a while (just up the road for me). I often see the Spits flying over this time of year, but would love to see (and hear) later mk fly over the garden. Truly a beautiful build.

I have followed your build on various forums. As someone else said already, a stunning build and finish.

Hello,
If you ever want to sell your Spitfire, contact me. I would gladly cross the Chanel!
I love the Spitfires, especially the XIV version with its C-type wings.
Kind regards
