Got myself a little Christmas treat. Grassmen New Holland TW230 by Model Farmer. 

I'll save opening it until Christmas Day (sad I know), but really looking forward to it. :)

Looks great. I'll look forward to your impressions of it when you open it. I held off on this since its not a lwb model like the real machine would be

what's the plan for these then Martin?

2wd conversion on the 5640, and add some detail and hardi decals to the sprayer. I was going to leave the 5000 and supreflow alone but I have been having naughty thoughts of big equal wheels. :D

Sound like a good plan, not my idea of naughty thoughts mind, at this time of year mine tend to get influenced by the perfume adverts on the TV :blink::P:D

Nice little bundle there Paul. 

Is it good value ordering direct from Class? I'd like a tedder like the one above, but some that I've seen on eBay are going for silly money. I must get a look on the Claas website to see.

I think Paul has started a trend :)

My latest and final buy of the year turned up today :)

Just has  scratches on one side from the factory, but for what I paid I am not going to complain :) and they look quite good like its brushed a tree branch :)

Looks good Brian, that's the trouble with these young lads when they get behind the wheel, better give him a tub of T-Cut and some dusters to get rid of his damage!:D

my carpet farmer has been banned from the Xerion 5000 and the T9.565 until he gets used to the power of them :)

Yet I think he still got the last laugh with the saddletrak and Xerion 3800 :P
