What's your latest farm/Construction buy in 2022
SPN replied to Tractorman810's topic in General Hobby Discussion
I wasn't minded to buy one of these when they were in the shops, but it will make a nice pairing with the Kane triple axle for woodchip, so bought one. -

One of my collection themes is 6 cylinder 2wd tractors, ranging from a Fordson E27 P6 to a Ford TW25 with all sorts of everything in between. I missed the UH MF 2620 2wd when it was originally issued, but managed to pick this one up recently. -

I found time to grab some pics of recent purchases just now. First up the MARGE T7550 (the Blue Steyr). This changes the back story for Newpark Farm in 2010 such that the 822, 818x2, TM155, 110-90 and County 762H were replaced with a T7070, T7550, T7050, T6090x2 and T6020. A very nice model. -

If it was on smaller wheels it would be very close to accurate. -

The 1494 was based on the 1210 and has a longer wheelbase than the 1394 which was based on the 996. The 1494 was shod on 13.6/38s or 16.9/34s wheras the 1394 was shod on 13.6/36s or 16.9/30s -

I'll be having three T6.180 Methanes please, although all will have to be re-shod. Or should I hope that Britains will make this model too? Their T6.180 is much more true to the original than the UH with it's ridiculous wheels. -
Come up to Moira and meet the Britains Marketing team. It'll all make sense then.

It's about time I updated the two 818s, 820 and 724 on one of my carpet farms. Hopefully Wiking or Weise will push the boat out with this model.

I'm the bones of an hour to the South West of you.

Absolutely stunning John. Should you decide to do an 1135, I'd be very happy to take it off your hands.
-
A pair of those would be nice. Hmmmmm.

If I remember correctly, the UK was about to amend these old weight laws and bring them up to date but the Civil Servants were reassigned to deal with the Brexit charlie foxtrot.

This is the one not to miss. Delighted it is back up and running. (Although the previous venue was a handier journey for me)

Bovines are bad. One dairy cow causes as much warming in a year as burning 4,000 litres of diesel. That's a problem we have to find a solution to. The alternative doesn't ber thinking about. I'm not aware of any scientists (with expertise in the area) who disagree with the consensus, including scientists in the US military who are warning the US Government that there is a huge problem imminent. I was on a zoom call with a senior climate scientist from the UK last year and he told us that he met Greta when she was 15 and he was really impressed with her in depth knowledge of the subject and the way she challenged him on the detail.

Those were announced formally, along with the TX66 and 6 cylinder David Brown 90/94 series -
ROS were the first to have a >€200 regular model with the IDEAL combine, if I remember correctly, and I reckon this could be a first >€300 contender. I'd much prefer some Grimme potato planting kit as I already have three Grimme harvesters.

I got Paul Capon to upgrade one of those in Pottinger colours many years ago. He thought I was mad as the green ones were making big money at the time -

I've seen a report of a Super Dexta 2000 coming from UH. I thought the 3000 was the Super Dexta in the 6X range.
