  1. Got mine today. It goes page 1-6 as it should, then jumps to 9, carries on to 16 as normal, then I get pages 7-8 and then back to 17 to the end. Apart from that its Ok. Not much on new models
  2. Karen told me today that there are 1250 blue Mccormicks and they are all hers. Im fairly sure they have been made because Balfour Beatie bought a batch of McCormicks and had them painted blue too match the rest of their Kit. It was in classic tractor mag a few months ago. Im also fairly sure that the idea to do the models came from a forum member. He really should be getting the credit for them. I got one today for ?17. They do not have a nuimber on the bottom like the blue fendts.
  3. It been snowing here in Cumbria since about 6am, theres about 3 inches now. I havnt seen snow like this for about 10 years! We don't get much snow usually as we are very near the coast.
  4. We have a root feeder on the 3 pt linkage. It's fairly simple, Just 2 pins for arms and a hydraulic top link which allows it to be self loading. The brackets where the arms fit are made so that the feed can be carried without a top link on if that makes any sense?? can't get pics, no camara, sorry.
  5. I saw one of those sets on ebay a while back TM, Think it made about ?30. Ive never seen the 805/loader set or the 805/green trailer set. Were these only sold in Holland
  6. mine was more At least its a good model. Would have been worse if I'd paid a lot for a heap of crap.
  7. I bought mine for quite a lot off ebay thinking they were like rocking horse droppings! I don't think its right that these companies say something will be limited and then when they sell well they make some more I guess it's my own fault, If I'd been patient and waited i could of got one for a lot less
  8. I think my yellow one has this sticker on too.
  9. I have a yellow one which i think was originaly produced as an autoway model, but mine is in a rainbow box and only appears in the 1988 catalogue, so i guess its quite rare in that box
  10. I bought an MF130 last year from a toy shop. This one had no weights with it. My original which ive probably had since the late 80's did have weights with it. Unfortunately the weights were lost along time ago
  11. I think they were 24's Marky, MF did call them chisel ploughs, but they were made by bomford who called them superflows. There was an article on them in classic tractor a few months back. Apparently they were never designed as a chisel plough.
  12. Heres a few Masseys for you: MF 1800 with Britains linkage (DT) with MF superflow conversion (PDC)
  13. ?120 for a Brian Norman MF1200. worth it though ?100 for a Britains Deutz DX6.50 MIB. Think thats fairly average price for that model
  14. My Bro does mine, so i only put photos on when he's home from uni. Not very often. I found that feed trailer. its made my westdown models Ive never heard of them but pics look nice. http://www.britains-tractors.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=3681.15
  15. They were at skipton, don't remember them being at spalding though. I thought they were too dear so i didnt buy any, i guess they were quite good though. Anyway if you want a cattle feed trailer there was one at toytrac in Nov. theres a pic on here somewhere, i'll try to find it
  16. The TW30 that I posted on here is very good. The 5000 is a bit crap. paint work + decals arent too good + when the model is picked up the front axle drops off! Hitch doesnt work too well. Its hidden away in a box somewhere. TW30 makes up for it, its one of my favourite models
  17. I saw him at skipton too. I have also seen him at spalding where i bought two tractor convo's from him, A ford TW30 2wd which i posted in 'my collection' last night and a yellow ford 5000. He was in Tractor and machinery magazine as well a few years ago, i might have it somewhere
  18. last one tonight, NH 8340 + lowloader + 6600
