fendt-the deere killer Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 the 4240s looks very much like the old 4350 deere i used to drive !!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 so so i recon i could get as good out of the ertl chassis i have with a bit of work mind, :laugh: worth the money though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alf aphid Posted May 27, 2012 Author Share Posted May 27, 2012 i couldn't ! good point though, does anyone know what kind of quality these are? it seems strangely that they use prototype photos on their website that dont look great. they seem to vary between superb and rubbish which is some difference when spending that money!

Tractorman810 Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 We saw some of the 68/910's they did at zwolle and 3 of us were shocked at the paint finish on them , however people who bought them and the other jd's they have done ,3000's , say the paints perfect ?? Could just be the ones we saw were the prototypes who knows. I know Udimore on here has a few of the 6000 and 3000's for sale so maybe he can give us a better view on them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would recommend them to any collector if they could ever afford them. I did have a customer who sent me an email requesting my views on the paintwork as they had seen the same finish at zwolle. It really does surprise me as the quality is what makes them so popular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 the 2 we saw at zwolle were shockers mate, puddles of yellow in the wheel rims, pasty looking green sections, but they could well have been rush job prototypes at the end of the day. others i have seen have been fine, last zwolle for instance, so certainly not knocking them, well worth the money going by the detail on them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alf aphid Posted June 2, 2012 Author Share Posted June 2, 2012 there web site pics do them no favours whatsoever when compared to some other pics on the interweb I simply wouldn't buy based on their own pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Udimore Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 Its very difficult to take pictures on the models UTS has as they are in these wooden presentation boxes, don't really want to take them out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
