Off-Road sanctioned events, it is defined as any item or items being accessible for purchase by anyone and therefore must be or have been available in UK retail outlets in reasonable volume at any one time.
(Rationale: - The section needs to be covered when items are temporarily not available or items have been discontinued but still used).

Does this mean that the one off cars where home made bits are put on and cars that are in development like the Aero, X11 etc are banned until I can buy it in a UK model shop?

I go on about this every year!!
The "Commercially Available" tag is only for specific rules, and not as a broad-brush across the whole rule book. I can only think of a couple of times it's used... Tyres, Cells & Motors.
