Tamiya Porsche 956 Rothmans - Rare kit?

Found this while browsing Hannants' website (www.hannants.co.uk - very good service) so snapped it up. It seems to be original issue, no "TS" colours called out on the instructions, plus the all-important "Rothmans" cigarette decals. All seems to be there although most of the cellophane packs are gone. No broken parts etc.

Looked through my old Tamiya catalogues and this kit (plus the New Man version) appeared in the 1985 issue, then in 1989 the "Rothmans" disappeared, then from 1997 the kit was gone. I built it at the time (hidden away back at the folks house) so this is memory lane.

Enough chat, here's the pics!
