Found this on German Ebay. (Surprising lack of Spur II stuff there actually)
Pipework is incomplete but looks decent from what I can see.
But its definitely too rich for my blood.

Looks quite nice to me.  Curious that it has a smokebox door from their NER engine rather than the correct LNWR one.  I have seen this more than once before and suspect Lowke confused the casings or lost the original one.  The vendor often has large scale models and also buys from UK auctions, so worth checking him out from time to time, though I have had no dealings with him myself.
