My best find would be a 8865 and 8862 for £12. In the same lot came a few
small sets, but I never did get around to building these. I once got an
incomplete 4563 for £3.
I tend to be more fastidious at car boot sales these days as the quality is

supermarkets etc. These items tend to be more expensive, but the quality is
far higher. A few weeks ago I got a RIS _&_ DDK this way. :-)
