Icon6 New Arrival

Well after months of pestering my AD finally got the call, I had been waiting for 15 months and was actually first in the store to register interest at 11 am on the day of release.

The dealer said they stopped taking names at 150 and have had 5 in so far since release.

Had never seen one in the flesh and pictures don't really do it justice , the jubilee really catches your eye...love it

On that basis it would mean the last named person on the list will get their BLRO in 15 years time. The price would probably have doubled buy then. Makes the grey market seem more realistic as each day passes .
