  1. My 770 TTs are now in the UK according to the UPS tracking system!! Perhaps tomorrow they'll be here! :)

    /M.

    i bet you feel like you did when you were 7 years old on christmas eve.you wont sleep tonight. ;D
  2. looking good johnny. i have been thinking of getting MAP 7810 or 6910 for a couple of months. in your opinion, when you received your model, where you 100% happy with it, or has it got a few faults. i have looked on their web-site and the real close up of the cab interior seems to show a sort of dappled effect on lower suround of the right hand gear/control centre. does yours have this finish?i think yours looks better for wide tyres,make sure we see it when its finnished. ;)

  3. Well I don't have the S690i anymore, but I do have the 9880i which is basically the same model; I will try and take some photos of it and the T670i, I have taken pics of both before but they will probably take some finding. If you could attach the Britains header to the T670i that would be the combine to have, but thats my point of view as I prefer JD's walker combines. The T670i is more functional than the S690 (opening panels, grain tank etc) and you get a header trolley as well.

    All that 'I will try and take some photos' - I forgot I sold my camera! But I'll sort something out

    thanks very much joe.
  4. how do all. am looking at getting another 1/32 JD combine. which is best, siku t670i or britains s690i. i am looking for model with best quality and detail. please post as many detailed pics of each as possible please with your comments. thanks all.

  5. Ha, good idea, the farmer who owns the business park i work on bought a brand new Lexion last year....i'll have a word with him!!!

    maybe he will take cash from you and book it through his account. he might get 10% discount as he is a dealer account holder, and you might not have to pay the V A T.
  6. Cheers guys, I have emailed the local Claas dealer, had no response yet though, wondered how much the P&P was, but at 15 Euros think i'll persist the dealer option!!

    barry, if you know any farmers near you that run claas machines, claas dealer could deliver your purchase to them for you, if not, if you are freindly with a farmer, they might collect it for you.
  7. Thats whats left sitting in claas warehouse, Dealers and retailers etc will have theres out of that. ;) You must of been in this afternoon as it was 1600 this morning! ;D

    i was in my dealers at 1620.
  8. How much is P&P?

    hello barry. my advice to you would be to contact a dealer, and if you have one near you,collect it yourself. if not, if you go to model shows, buy one over phone and meet them at the event. in my opinion these models are to big and fragile to post. you might want to contact your local CLAAS dealer, they will definately order you one in. i dont know if you are in the trade, but machinery dealers are open to everyone, not just us farming folk. CLAAS U.K dealers , well mine in braintree,essex, are currently quoting £70 plus the dreaded V.A.T.you can take your chance with postal system, it's up to you. hope this helps.
  9. i have been into claas dealers in braintree today to get spares for our 1/1 combine,while there i got parts dept to check stock levels at factory in germany and he said norev 770tt stock level was down to 1138 pieces.does this mean thats all thats left in europe?maybe dealers have taken large amount all ready, who knows. :-

  10. hello all, just a quick pointer to say another norscot challenger 95e has just been added to ebay listing. this model is becoming hard to find,so anyone looking for one might be interested. also just on is a norev claas 108 maxi, and norscot lexion 580, and agratoy kverneland plough.

  11. There was an article in Model farmer a couple of issues ago with a step by step guide on how to do it and what to look out for, it was spread out over 2 issues but I will have a look through my back issues when I can get them out and you will be able to buy therm through the forum shop.

    thanks very much ;)
  12. hello all. i am thinking of buying a kit for the 135 or 155 as i used to drive one.has anyone built one, and if so could you post pictures and comments. i have seen scaledown website pictures but wondered if anyone has any more, thanks.

  13. hello all. when will ertl see the potential in releasing 1/32 scale john deere tractors with s-g series cabs.does anyone agree that the market is crying out for a farm show/plow city high detailed model of, to name a few, a 2040,2140,2850,3350 and all 4050 series.i know 3350 has been released in 1/32, but really quality and detail was poor,moore a genuine playable toy.please post your thoughts.

  14. have ordered mine aswell from manns claas in braintree, for same money. after agritechnica my dealers had 750tt model on shelf for £97, but i didnt buy it as i wanted 770tt. now i see them changeing hands on e-bay for £250 makes me sick, i missed opportunity to make a quik buck.
