CX820Joe Posted July 12, 2021 Author Share Posted July 12, 2021 Further to above, I have contacted Weise to see if the 926 gen 1 is likely to be available again, as its not listed as discontinued on their site - would be just as happy with one of those as the 824 as they look the same and I have examples from the following 3 generations of 900s so would complete the set.

I expect some of the MB trac models would do well if re-released as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CX820Joe Posted July 13, 2021 Author Share Posted July 13, 2021 Reply from Weise - the 926 gen 1 will be available again, pandemic has disrupted supply. Happy days. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CX820Joe Posted March 18, 2022 Author Share Posted March 18, 2022 The recently arrived Hurlimann XM120 with Weise Deutz front weight and GB Precilitor. Had intended this for the fert spreader but the linkage wont stay raised, the tow pin is too big. i hope to get rhe Same equivalent to this tractor at some point 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbo Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 Joe, you can get the Virtus 120 at various places at a reasonable price at the moment, probably around £30. If you want the Virtus 140 then expect to pay more than double that. I have no idea why the prices vary so much or why the 140 is more desirable that the 120 version 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CX820Joe Posted March 18, 2022 Author Share Posted March 18, 2022 Thanks Mike, G&M have a 120 which they kindly said they'd keep for me for a bit. Ros do seem to charge more for their models - the Deutz 6140 is a nice model but not as much metal in it as the XM120 (which I expect weighs the same or similar to the Virtus 120). I would quite like to get that Ros 140 though too at some point as it looks very nice. The lack of printing on the tyres is another incentive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CX820Joe Posted April 19, 2022 Author Share Posted April 19, 2022 I considered just keeping the older orange Fiat 880 and listing the terracotta version on eBay...but I have decided to keep both, they're too good to part with. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CX820Joe Posted October 27, 2022 Author Share Posted October 27, 2022 This Ford 5000 is a nice model, the hitch isn't great and the back end in general isn't as nicely detailed as the rest of the tractor, but the brush fits onto it OK so it can sweep the yard 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CX820Joe Posted March 23, 2023 Author Share Posted March 23, 2023 Here are a few of the current fleet Including MF8740s, Valtra Q305, JCB 542-70, Massey Ideal 9PL, Massey 8s, 7499 and 7726, plus a couple of oldies hiding away. MF 3080 is behind the 8s too. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CX820Joe Posted March 23, 2023 Author Share Posted March 23, 2023 Thank you Jack. The Valtra has gone back into its box for now, there is more than enough pulling power with the Masseys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CX820Joe Posted April 2, 2023 Author Share Posted April 2, 2023 Thank you Jack 😊 I probably should base something around a smaller combine like the Dominator Maxi I've got, but I've always liked a Massey Combine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CX820Joe Posted May 2, 2023 Author Share Posted May 2, 2023 Renault Atles with NC slurry tanker, used the weight from a Claas Axion which looks OK on it. The steering axle is like an old Britain's but I do still like this model. I remember getting the version with the weight when it first came out, it seemed so much better than what we were used to at the time. And I think it was around 12 quid back whenever it was it came out! This model cost a bit more than that... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CX820Joe Posted June 3, 2023 Author Share Posted June 3, 2023 Found another A frame which fits the Fendt - front linkage is too loose for the the mower to be raised but happy otherwise 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Palmer Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 (edited) A lot of realistic 3 point linkages front and rear dont hold up anything Joe, if they dont i send them back, only ones i have altered was the britains valtra 70 th edt, i replaced the A frame with a siku one. When you pay a lot of money for the highly detailed models they should work, some times a screw needs tightening Edited June 3, 2023 by Paul Palmer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack390 Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 With the universal hobbies models, I’ve tightened the screws on the linkage, works for a short period of time , don’t know the long term effects though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
