Model-wise, I decided to drill a hole in my Britains trailed forage harvester (the later green one) and fit the original 'tongue' in the spout, it now moves when the wheels rotate
Discovering upon receiving my Massey 200 trailer that it is in fact the Autoway one with MF decals covering the Autoway ones! > Glad I didn't shell out on this one.
From a newly discovered little antiques shop a few miles away that had a clutch of old Britains, £5 all:
Crane and mount for breakdown Unimog.
Green Unimog. I later found the steering column & tipper but no hinge pin/bar to attach it.
Valmet 805 cab, near mint.
Grey lwb landrover. Poor shape but I had to rescue it from a leaking roof!
Old JCB Loadall cab (battered) and skinny driver.

Yes this is particularly annoying. And very often with an image search the thumbnail won't match the description and you're left trawling the site for that image.
Does anyone know the best search engine or search method to match 1:32 pictures or website searches? I put "BRITAINS 22.5 C.W.T DUMPER" into google image search and got ziltch. \
hey where's the question smiley gone?
I found this German model/scenery supply shop that makes paper maize plants. They're 1:60 scale, but they told me a 1:35 pack is going to be released at the end of December.
