Just wondering if there is any news on how the next batch are progressing. Might they be expected arrive this year? I fully appreciate that we live in strange times and that things get delayed. It’s just that it would be useful to get some idea of expected arrival in order to help planning of when to buy what.

Hello Yes, they are well underway and we have just received the decorated samples. Once we have reviewed these we will publish some photos. delivery should be late summer at current lead times, depending on the finding from the sample review. I hope that helps

Thanks Joel
That means I can buy something else this spring and get the sprinter later in the year.
