Not as easy on the eye as the Rogator 6xx series is it?
-
Reply from Weise - the 926 gen 1 will be available again, pandemic has disrupted supply. Happy days.
-
Hopefully so Sean, I think the 824 always goes for a good price nowadays just to name one. I expect some of the MB trac models would do well if re-released as well.
-
Further to above, I have contacted Weise to see if the 926 gen 1 is likely to be available again, as its not listed as discontinued on their site - would be just as happy with one of those as the 824 as they look the same and I have examples from the following 3 generations of 900s so would complete the set.

Not a popular brand, but what do you think of this restyled 7 series? I think it looks a great improvement on the previous style, and even better than the current McCormick X7 which it is based on.

Very nice Phil, those later 716s are very nice, the Generation 1, perhaps not so much. Those tyres suit the 820 very nicely - I like how it looks as though its rearing up slightly. I' ve got a UH 818 stashed away, it would look better with those tyres - whether or not that happens is anyones guess, I shan't make the same error as with the 824 though and flog it!

I do bitterly regret selling the Weise 824, if anyone knows of one coming up for sale do let me know. I know there is a limited edition coming up soon from Toys Farm but I'd want to display the model and not sure it would be right to do so with a rare one.

What's your latest farm/Construction buy in 2021
CX820Joe replied to robbo's topic in General Hobby Discussion
Glad it's going to stay in one piece Phil. Be interested to see your Ros N conversion, I did see one online somewhere with those UH T3 wheels and it looked 100 times better. Chap had had it painted metallic green too. I may offload the 2 I bought I think. -
Have put the Kuhn fertiliser spinner on the Fendt 816, I think it sits a little too far off but I can live with it. It was awkward to attach though, I had to put the hitch onto the linkage and then reattach the spreader afterwards. There wasn't the same hassle with the Valtra T191 it just went on and off. (Hoping the pictures attach)

Nice find Phil, they don't come up very often. I managed to get the blue one from the French ebay seller before Brexit! Are you going to keep it as is? -

Nipped down to Clun in South Shropshire to pick up a birthday present this morning, spotted this working away on one of the surrounding hills. Not a great photo, was very murky today.

I like that bronze colour, that did appear on the G135, I think it was only available via the dealer. You see quite a few Valtras around with John Bownes stickers on, there is also Edwards and Farmer who sell them, they are a few miles south of Shrewsbury. -

I think I like the red one best Phil, am debating whether to get it though. Probably shouldn't debate too long I suppose though. -
A great read as always Phil. Did you decide not to include the 926 in the layout in the end?
-
Paul, have you sold off your fleet? Saw a lot of similar machines for sale on Ebay from a Devon seller?
-
I haven't posted any images since Sunday, in my sales topic, they were on ok but have disappeared for the moment.

I think even in 'normal' times Britain's always get their releases out just at the wrong time, combines always seem to come out in the autumn!

The Tractor Twitcher's Travels Revisited
CX820Joe replied to The Tractor Twitcher's topic in Farm Talk
was it registered late then? seems a very late reg for an 8000, though they did overlap the TX series for a bit I think? E was the earliest TX I saw. -

Ah! Thank you Atte, no you didn't misunderstand- but I could only find pictures of them with black mudguards -

I've bought a couple of these Ros Valtra N174s following the A104 I got yesterday. I've deliberated over these for a while as they didn't get the most rave reviews and the back wheels and front linkage don't look right at all. But for £22 each I thought I'd get them and see if there are any ways to improve them.
