I know there are several sites that have been mentioned, but to save time, could we get a list together for the above. I thought it a good idea perhaps to approach some of these to see if they are interested in perhaps helping the forum, in return for them having their banner at the bottom of the page, As more and more of us start venturing into custom models, they could do quite well out of it I thought.

I think there are several, all small modifications.

How much would that set you back?

Only 1500 were made, along with the fastrac and 1cx

Should be getting a 590 in this week so will post pics when it arrives

Yep thats great, thanks!

Can someone please inform me of the cat number of this model Cheers

I once saw a boxed set go for ?60, although dont think they were cheap when released.

Not at the moment unfortunately but.. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/CORGI-DAVID-BROWN-1412-TRACTOR_W0QQitemZ6991418638QQcategoryZ56317QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Im sure this set was only released for about a year (2000). Dont see too many about, I like the mud effect, shame about the green!!

Yeh, its been sitting in a draw for a couple of years, My Dad must have picked it up from somewhere

Ahh I see! Hmm, Ill put a few questions to the SMF chiefs

What do you mean?

Fits Britains implements so I am assuming the model is 1/32. Not sure if this has been posted before, here it is anyway!

Bill Any news on the next 1/32 precision model? Thanks Andy

I think ownership and management had a lot to do with it, People at the top were not investing in new models, didnt really know what they were doing, siku catches up, overtakes them, Britains start losing money hence they cant afford to invest in vast amounts of new toolings and find themselves plumetting fast. I think if they had the money we would have seen many new fresh models a couple of years back but as they were so close to collaspe, it has had to be a slow gradual process to restore the brand.

I think we can only answer this question this time next year. Britains have an array of exciting and innovating releases coming up for 2006 that reflect the transition from the bad days of 2000/2001/2002/2003/2004 to meet the demands of the common marketplace today. Although with the Simba Solo, the JD mower, the Keenan Feeder, the CNH foragers and the JD8430T, we have seen a big improvement.

Not sure but does one not have double wheels?

I got two boxes of these instead of the claas cougars UH importer needs a numpty for that!!

They are pretty scarce, we have got a couple kicking about, definitely something to keep up in the loft.

Very Nice

It is already sold, Sorry

A strange one for me, and Dave too I expect!! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1-32-Britains-John-Deere-8430T-Tracked-Tractor_W0QQitemZ6988530030QQcategoryZ117196QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Picked these up this morning, I think they must be extremely early releases. Nice Massey in turquoise blue
