robbo

I would really like to have a night in a bar talking to you Pudds, I somehow think it would be a very entertaining evening robbo

There was a fantastic topic on here about this some time ago and if I remember rightly the person had used Microsoft Publisher, he had taken photos of both his models and of the real tractor and built up a data sheet for both, you have got me thinking now and I am probably going to spend all night on here looking at old topics and trying to find it \ \ \ \ \

drizzle all day until about 3ish and then just dull

Not quite the same league but I have been looking for an UH Fendt 415. You can do it as "Buy it now" for £13.99 from Toptractor http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/UH-FENDT-415-VARIO-4WD-Tractor-1-32_W0QQitemZ230277324079QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item230277324079&_trkparms=39%3A1|66%3A2|65%3A10&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14.l1318 So why do people keep bidding for others and push the price near to £16 \ \ \ \ http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Universal-Hobbies-Fendt-415-Vario-Tractor-1-32-BNIB_W0QQitemZ120289121068QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item120289121068&_trkparms=39%3A1|66%3A2|65%3A10&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14.l1318 and the postage costs more as well ??? ???

Hi Malcy p between you and Belarusfan you must have photographed every bit of farming kit in Suffolk :o :o do you ever bump into each other?

Great stuff Stephen thanks for sharing robbo

thanks Jez, I couldn't think of the terminology for it, I still work in din hp (the old German/European measurement)

The standard 6920 produces 150 hp whilst the 6920S is 160hp, both these figures are calculated at the engine and not at the pto or drawbar

I remember that episode too, for the last 50 miles or so the car was saying there were 0 miles left in the tank but it got him home :D :D

A couple of heavy thunderstorms here and t'internet keeps dropping out \ \ \ \ have to post in between the storms when I get the connection back :-X

There is one in this assortment, may not be a Taarup but could be modified http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Assortment-of-Britains-farm-models-as-pictured_W0QQitemZ320277884091QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item320277884091&_trksid=p3911.m14.l1318

Well you learn something new every day :D :D thanks Marky. I spent a number of years driving a 135 and I didn't know that the axles were different \ \ \ trained observer that's me : : :

At the risk of being just a little bit thick \ \ \ \ what is the difference between the axles and what do they look like ??? ??? robbo

Went to the pictures to see Mama Mia, it was the funniest film I have seen in ages, go and see it, its an absolute hoot ;D ;D ;D

oowww that looks painful Kev, tell him he needs a new tractor for being very brave ;) My daughter did that when she was about 5 and lost her new front teeth, its a very worrying time for any parent regards Mike

Great pics Bill :D there are some Track Marshalls in some of the early pics, one looks like a TM70 and the other a TM 100 or similar, seeing as I am a fan of the TM range have you any more of them \ \ \ ta robbo

Judging by some of your posts Bill you have probably got all of the models they are selling ;) ;) and more besides ;D

I have also had a slight problem with glue on the pages this month, it has affected pages 28 and 29 which is the David Brown article. Other than that it is the usual good readable articles so well done yet again robbo

You are really teasing Pudding ;D ;D first a Fiat 115 and then an Iseki, you just need a Samecar now and he will be a dribbling wreck :D :D

It has been amended now to £900.00 thats a bit more like it \ \ \

you and me both Bill \ \ \ \ the last time I was silaging the "big" tractor was an IH 674 with a 574 hydro on the buckrake and me carting with an old MF 165, unfortunately I never thought of taking photos in those days, it cost too much to get them developed at Boots ;D robbo

have to agree with you there ;) , that is one fine beastie

This was my reason for asking http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=270256413002&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=017 the last time I was farming Dominators were the biggest and the best around, no such things as Lexions then, and I have never seen another model of one robbo

Does anybody know what scale the Bruder Claas Dominator came in? Also how good is it and what is the detail like TIA robbo

Think you mean this mag http://www.earthmoversmagazine.co.uk/ it is a sister publication to Classic Tractor, I'm a bit surprised that Rory Day hasn't posted the link himself
