mb86 Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Brilliant photos of excellent models. Have you had any experience of the Italeri kits, they are 1/35 but wondered how they compare to the britains landys. https://m.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_odkw=Revell+land+rover+kit+1%2F35&_from=R40&_trksid=m4084.l1313&_nkw=italeri+land+rover+kit+1%2F35 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ones on eBay aren't too expensive by the looks of it, I will have to try one out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stabliofarmer Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Really like the off road disco and the Iveco. The 2a with soft top canopy is very nice too. Great collection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love me discos as well, shame no one has made a classic, closest one I've found is a corgi one but there quite a bit smaller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferret90 Posted October 17, 2019 Author Share Posted October 17, 2019 Started on a Land Rover 90 flatbed, not everyone's cup of tea but I like them. I've got a red Britains one I got at toytrac which I'm going to convert. I'm basing it on this... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 na, you need a challenge , saw one of these earlier this year, and had to do a double take . never heard of them till then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferret90 Posted October 17, 2019 Author Share Posted October 17, 2019 Errr, mabey later Sean I guess they are homemade , never seen one before myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 i wouldn't like to say, the one i saw was very much like the top one, but with the wider wheels of the bottom, bar the normal wear and tear bumps etc, it looked factory made to me.

Ferret90 Posted October 17, 2019 Author Share Posted October 17, 2019 It might be worth having a go at it on my next 90. I reckon a Britains everard sprayer would probably fit nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smithy Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 A few years back there used to be two landys around here with sprayers on the back I think they did a lot of horsey paddocks ,I also can vaguely remember one based on a Ford Escort van Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
