Exactly right Nick, we bought her second hand though so the PO must've held onto it... we used it on an NH conventional baler with the long bar and everything else was PUH or linkage...

My sister got me a 7810 for my birthday, I'm in love.... 

Not with my sister incidentally, that would just be weird...

Cor, that is nice... might have to get me one of them!

Maybe we were missing the short drawbar then!! 

Brilliant! And voiced over by Spottiswood from Team America too! 

The 7810 rear drawbar is stored on the side of the engine when the pick up hitch is used. As the tractor is using it's pick up hitch then the drawbar is correctly attached to the front side of the tractor. Is the bonnet bulge to do with the tractors having air conditioning?

Dead on....

a very fine model the seat cushions look blueish??? that would be wrong, also has pointed out the clevis drawbar was removed when using pick up hitch. the trouble is the one shown on the tractor is a longer drawbar for a two wheel drive tractor . fwd tractors had a short drawbar because the fourwheel drive transfer box.

I'm sure we had a pretty long clevis drawbar on ours, not stumpy like the one we have on the 6030....? Long time ago no mind you....!

The seat would / should have been a black upholstered Grammer....

So it would seem that the floppy Britains attempt at a hedgetrimmer wasn't entirely inaccurate?   

Ooooo another coloured Fendt 

Do you even collect them you nutter?!    Barry & his amazing technicolour dream fendts....   

Ford heaven..... which of the Irish contingent has been put out of business already...? Was it Ricky or Blake....? Never mind eh! 

The guy driving for the old man had a friend along and let him drive the last load off the field as the rain started the other day [T6030 & 10t AW], heading down the hill she let go - hard dry clay with fresh wet surface, it's like an ice rink - as it slid to the bend in the track it took to the field to the left, jack knifed and popped 2 tyres off the rims on the tractor.... \ the old man was following in the Freelander, parked up and jumped out but didn't put the hand brake on properly and the van rolled into the trailer and dented the driver's door.....   other than that, all was going well till the rains came....!

Try this guy, again, long way from you but just round the corner from the McConnel factory and very thick in with them.... might be able to sort you out with a good deal...?

Ooh! Oooh! I know someone Col....! 

YOU!!!!   

No bloody excuses now, we've all seen what you can do... 

That's very nice... always quite liked that particular Britains model, I have one to re-fit onto a UH chassis at some point, looks very smart with the loader. Much work in it? 

£12.99 including VAT @ 15%....   

harold poulton has the licence to build these i think , i know he has had some made up but only sold 2 or 3 , £200 mark i beleive , i would love to make these , but they won't let me ,

Aahh, Harold.... he doesn't use the internet apparently, or so he told me at Malvern last year  ..... that might be why he's only done 2 and none of us are aware of it....  

as far as im aware Lloyd Loaders used to have the licensing to Muir Hill

I would love to see UH make a Muir Hill, its a tractor that deserves a decent replica. Ive driven alot over the years and prefer them to Countys

That's who I spoke to, they reckon someone has been granted a license to produce models but I couldn't establish who it was or whether they knew what they were on about....  \  Either way, they said that DT wasn't allowed to produce them, which seemed a bit of an ar$ey stand point to me.... They seem to possess the brand but do nothing with it... 

Muir Hill put a stop to it..... They reckon they license it somewhere but couldn't tell me who had the license or if / where we could get models...   

This one is Mike's incidentally....   

It's going to take years for the entire range to get overhauled, and in the meantime they still need to make enough money for r&d on the new models....so far as badge engineering goes it could be a whole lot worse.... at least the loader tractors have some play value with a decent strong loader [even if the hitch is tripe..] If they're large frame T6000's though, they have the wrong mudguards on... they should be the same as the T7000's shouldn't they..?

haha, thanks boys....   

Looks a lot like the old Ertl loader to me....  \  So not really new then... 

Great toy though.... nice and sturdy.... ideal for carpet farming, not to mention playing in the dirt... 

What look are you after? PCC wall panels probably the easiest to do, smooth MDF painted in satin with a roller.... use grey and mix a few spots of white & darker grey in to get some colour variance... if you want brick, you could use the brick paper from model shops, or be really clever and make your own, glue fine wire to MDF to make the courses them press a sheet of milliput over it and peel off.....

That's a good price.... I MUST have one...!  Hmmm, BMX or a 7810 & 5640.... I REALLY need to grow up!!!
