Hi John, some lovely items, the boxes are just like the Farm range ones, not very sturdy, but then they weren't designed to last 30 plus years.

Can you have a look at the underside of the Unimog and see if it has a Sample Copy lable afixed. I have 9980 in an Autoway box with that lable underneath and the 3 pointed star on the doors are cut out from the grill decal. 

I'm sure you are aware that the Safety Trailer would normally be white in the Road series, so this is most likely Britains using up mouldings! I think i have a wrong coloured Safety Trailer and Land Rover 9981 but cannot remember which way round colour wise.

Thanks Paul, yes your right i suppose the boxes have done well to last this long.

Had a look under the unimog and there is no sample sticker, and i don't think the decal on the door on mine is cut from the grill sticker it's a bit different.

yes not got a white safety trailer yet i'm on the lookout

Some amazing finds lately, superb! And about the different colours in parts on the models I knew, but different coloured inner trays? Never seen those. Something to keep an eye out for, but as far as I know Farm Series always used creme or white inner trays, depending on age.

Thanks Hajo

yes its a bit different using different colour trays and as you say the farm series seemed to stick with creme or white, but i can think of one of the top of my head that is the lamborghini that had a blue tray but i can't think of any others at the minute

Nice one! Do you have any idea which model of set should be inside?

No it could be any number of models from the tractors, land rovers, unimog, loadall and some implements they just stuck a sticker on the end with the model number and description on but later ones sometimes just had the model number written on in pen

Tractor world show at malvern on Saturday. A guy from  Ireland called Raymond ( can't think of his second name at the moment) was selling them he had alsorts of different ones but only the autoway and a massey one in britains. He normally sells models when I've seen him in the past at shows but he did have some number plates and models at Carlisle show last year
