CX820Joe Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Good stuff Brian, how did your sale go? i have gone in the opposite direction lately and bought mostly Britains/Siku mainly as it's cheaper and I hope to weather some of it, something I would be loath to do to an expensive model. Also have a nice fleet idea which can be made up of Mostly Britains tractors including a couple of big New Hollands or Deeres (undecided) . I don't have much space though so have some thinking to do about that. Whats the huge plough behind the Xerion? Is it the Ros one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep its the Ros Gregoire Besson SPSLB9 14 farrow I started with low price but as I got hold of a good amount of high end models at reduced prices I have slowly adjusted my fleet to be UH, Ros, Wiking and a few others as 90% is now 3 point front and rear couplings The sale went well and allowed me to change out the last 2 items I was having trouble with and to buy some detail up parts and buying 2 hitch kits for my siku Valtra S was more expensive than buying a UH one with front 3 point and a well detailed rear end with dummy top link and standard uh lower arms but will be hitched to trailers most of the time I take my hat of to the traders that do it week in and out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love a huge plough to go behind one of those, 14 furrows might be a bit long though, 10 would do i have kept some of the nicer detailed models but opposite to you not really kept many of the 3 point hitch stuff mainly because it was a faff putting trailers etc on some of them...example being the Wiking Arion, a lovely model but found the hitch part too high up so a two axle trailer tended to only sit on its back axle. And more of my implements are cheaper so it's simpler with Britains/ Siku hitch tractors. but I am quite fickle and may change my mind again one day!
