Deere-est Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 I do Paul but if I get bored of not buying anything or if I'm at show without anything I have used/driven then I like to rekindle my childhood collection and replace them all with MIB versions. I'll start a topic for each collection when I'm a bit more organised. . .. whenever that may be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady Ferguson Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 I know, when I saw the price label I nearly asked Mandy for cash back! :laugh: :laugh: I know they're expensive, but I got told off when we saw well-known dealer had one on his stand at Shepton for £75!

justy 46 Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 My mate who works for a Case dealer has just got me a 956XL, not in a dealer box though, don't they do this anymore? Quite pleased with it and will put a review on Rate and Review. I got a IH 956XL also today. Very good model for a Britains. I have been waiting 2 weeks for it to arrive. When i was buying the Case 1056 2 weeks ago the 956 was outa stock from my model dealer. So i orded it & im impressed with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johny mf Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 i think it is a fair price for that model in dealer box and comming straight from the MF factory! Normal version costs about 50euro! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Oh indeed... that additional provenance is worth at least 3 euro's .. or even 30 for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CX820Joe Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Got a JD 8360R today...they had quite a nice range of Britains in Charlies...also picked up a couple of Siku fertilizer spreaders - not the most marvellously detailed but they match the Schluter Supers wonderfully Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Palmer Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 well my new holland 8560 came today,and what a model,i posted in another topic about my all time favourite tractor model,well,change what i said,for this is the best model ive got or had,ever,£30.00 from g and m through ebay,and a dealer box,although im not bothered about the box,its very well made,full of detail,and of course all the different front weight or front links option,plus rear links and drawbar options as well,plus the double rear wheel option,i know imber do these options,not the double wheels,but since i dont have a ford imber,i cannot comment on them,the model travels well in the post without the use of ties or small fiddly screws,and although im going to convert it to a tm,i am going to get another just because i think its very very good,and i never drove a 8560,the roof looks fine to me as well,im going to check if somebody as rated and reviewed this model,if nobody has i will review it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
