Got the Schuco IH 1455 myself last week & i like it alot. thanks justin ive got to admit the nasher is my first in my collection and yes its an excellent model just glad i didnt buy the britains toy version now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justy 46 Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 thanks justin ive got to admit the nasher is my first in my collection and yes its an excellent model just glad i didnt buy the britains toy version now Ive both. But the only reason i have both,is cause i love classic 80's & 90's era tractors & they will always be top of my shopping list before the more modern stuff. I would only buy NH,JD,Valtra & MF usually when buying modern tractors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr softie Posted September 14, 2011 Author Share Posted September 14, 2011 i see the rear wheel track on the 7230r is set very wide,im looking forward to britains european release of this model yes it is set wide and i agree im looking forward to the britains european version being released in november, what also affects the model the rear wheels/ tyres are oversized compared to the other american deere`s, 8430 etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 That blue disc harrow wasn't out as long as the yellow one so good find at that price I would say Brian. Blackpool... a bit far to go for me especially on a day trip ....but you have landed some nice models at good prices Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackpool... a bit far to go for me especially on a day trip ....but you have landed some nice models at good prices bill i couldnt believe my luck when they were on the shelf ( not im a big britains collector) i couldnt refuse , eddie had been clearing out his cellar and found a few cases burried in it he also had a number of bargain sets with what looked like lower quality tractors and impliments / animals etc and ertl land rovers and a number of different coloured landrovers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr softie Posted October 15, 2011 Author Share Posted October 15, 2011 a couple of additions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justy 46 Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 If those are todays price tags on the obsolete boxed Britains implements you bought Brian,id say you got them for peanuts. Great bargains there. The weathered UH 7810 seems to me to be a bit overdone by them. The muck & dirt looks smudged all over it. What do you think of it? cause im yet to see it in the flesh.

Steve P Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Amazing collection them old britains models was bargins, i agree the 7810 looks like its just been dragged out of the slurry pit, big repair bill there!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 i was then thinking the same justin, looks way over the top finish wise, these pics are the first i have seen of it close up and to be honest they have put me off buying it ,somehow just does not look right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr softie Posted October 26, 2011 Author Share Posted October 26, 2011 justin and steve p the britains were a steal and the shop still had more on the shelf, ive had a lot of bargains from it , sean steve, and justin my honest opinion of the 7810 is that it looks like the mud has been put on with a hand brush as i would swear it looks like brush marks instead if the coating like e.g. the spalding/ portrush models. i doubt if i would have bought it if i had saw it in the flesh first but i ordered it on the net so its now in the collection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
