and masons are still expensive tim but they had about 30 models in the show room but it was all old stock
-
went to wilcocks at heathfield on the mole vally famers road they had 5 models there and only one dealer box model a t7060. forgot to go to vallances the vltra place.its a poor show down these neck of the woods these days sean :'(maybe ?? the dobwalls yard went years ago, think its a truck workshop now, getting harder to find a good dealer latley , especially ones that stock models all the time, closest to me really fergy wise is launceston or whiddon down, nh is bovey tracy, jd ,you know, or cornwall farmers,

i don't think i've ever seen any any garden stuff there mate . theres not much there really mate but they keep a few tractors there. there manito dealers as well and theres a few of those too. unlike mst they keep leafets on display . i don't think i have seen a tractor at mst for a few years. there more garden stuff now . where masons had almost every tractor out in there yard . wanted to see the 7530 and 6930 side by side to see for myself to see the difference . but no 7530 maybe mst are skint if they are shutting down yardsthey are ment to be massey dealers but i have never seen a new tractor at either yard,did when they had one in dobwalls ,but thats it, mostly parts.might have to hunt the other one down ,have heard of it, also does garden machinery ect to doesnt it,

as it was raining i went to the car auctions at exeter , saw a 53 plate astra van go for £1100 and it had low miles full service history and not a scratch on it . then went to JD dealers for paint and check out dealer box stuff (nothing) then nh dealers to do the same and then mf dealers to see my mate in charge of stores and it was his day off so couldn't talk to him about dealer box stuff. they had uh mf combine , all mf 1/16th stuff , 8690 new colours and 5480 all in dealer box. plus picked up tractor leaflets from 4000 to 8600 ranges. plus mf paint too
