justy 46 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Can anyone tell me if these beauties are still available or are they discontinued. I know there was also a limited run of the Black coloured model produced . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPN Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 I can point you to the International 1255 and 1455, but no sign of the CASE version so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janval Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 These are discontinued years ago, the 1255 XL was a limited run of 4000 back in 2012 if I'm not mistaken, the 1455 was not limited but was produced the same year. I got my hands on one from a German shop earlier this year, reduced price due to a small bump in the box. With import charges it probably totalled to about £100 (£30 in import charges). Pricey, but that's the way it's moving these days. Could get lucky and find one if you google long enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janval Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 And, the black one was limited to 1500, from 2013 I think. So that one would be harder to get a hold of if you'd like one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justy 46 Posted October 11, 2018 Author Share Posted October 11, 2018 I remember paying €55 off the shelf for my IH version. €80 is the most I would go postage all in . SPNs link might tempt me .. Thanks for the feedback guys . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janval Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 I have both an IH - comfort cab version (paid under 30 euros for that one + shipping 10 euros) and the Case 1255XL. Though the Case was expensive it was a very good looking model with a lot of features. So if you are willing to spend that amount of money, I would surely reccomend it.

You could have got them for that price alright when the were on the market. But they are hard to find now , and discontinued. So the value goes up. It's just one off those models I had been meaning to get , but left it too late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve P Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Know what you mean there Justin, there are many models i missed out on when they was in production and much cheaper, frustrating to say the least!!. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
