1:148 Scale (N Gauge)
RRP: £4.85
This long-wheelbase Land Rover Defender (N Scale) in a rich marine blue and white colour scheme is offset by the RNLI’s signature flag and Lifeboats wording on both side doors in red and white with the Crown and Anchor in yellow down the centre of the flag.
The Defender has had a roof bar moulded in blue and white with contrasting blue RNLI lettering. Registered HG56 LNY from 2006, additional detail includes the LR87 fleet lettering and the website address in white on the rear side doors. The interior is black and we also see the Defender name printed in gold to the right of the rear door.
The Royal National Lifeboat Institution was founded in 1824 by William Hillary and comprises a registered charity run by volunteers with around 40,000 men and women who give their time freely and bravely to man the lifeboat when the shout goes out, day or night in all weathers. The RNLI, whose motto is Saving Lives at Sea, operates right around the shores of the UK including its surrounding islands and inland waterways. Lifeboat stations are always worth a visit when open to the public and the larger ones also support a shop.
