ClassCastException on GradleBuildModel

I'm trying to get the applicationId from an Android module. Using

GradleBuildModel model = GradleBuildModel.get(module) which is working fine.

But as soon as I try to access the android() AndroidModel I get a:

java.lang.ClassCastException: com.android.tools.idea.gradle.util.BuildFileProcessor cannot be cast to com.android.tools.idea.gradle.util.BuildFileProcessor

although it is obviously the same class?

I'm using IntelliJ 2018.1 with gradle backed plugin and depedencies to android

compile fileTree(dir: '/Applications/IntelliJ IDEA CE.app/Contents/plugins/android/lib', include: ['*.jar'])

I'm tesing also in IntelliJ 2018.1 (per runIde gradle task).
