phil phoenix Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 I thought we might see some pictures from Marges Open day, was hoping to see an 8000 Lexion on display A black Magnum is no big deal, I still dont get why black paintwork causes such a fuss...............Maserati Blue or similar has always been the best colour for any vehicle imo.................Just like my Audi S3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not really struck on them either to be honest, besides a Fendt 900 gen 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catkom3 Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 Available now from the MarGe shop, But these are 1/50th scale, Also note the price compared to the size and scale of the 1/32nd scale models,?? https://www.margemodels.shop/trucks-trailers/#cc-m-product-18648092625 Regards Joe.

The Ivecos are getting very long in the tooth now It might happen, I reckon it would be a big seller, But it would almost certainly be 50% more expensive being 50% bigger,somewhere around the € 110 mark I guess,specially if the tail lift works,and knowing MarGe, it probably does.

catkom3 Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 just had a quick look on the Nooteboom web site to see if there was any news on the low loader / dolly model,and due to Covid etc they have been knocked back to the fourth week in January 2021, " We have received the message from our supplier MarGe models that they are currently experiencing problems with the production speed in the factories and also during transport due to the corona virus. As a result, a number of MargeModels projects will slow down, including the Nooteboom EURO-PX 4-axle low-loader with 2-axle Interdolly. The models are expected to be delivered in January.

SPN Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 That 8x4 tractor and the 4 axle lowloader is screaming at me to buy it. It is totally impractical, has no place in my collection without big leap of logic, is very expensive, but I want it. Will the JOAL Kamasutra 45 tonner sit on the bed I wonder? Hmmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catkom3 Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 I would really like the low loader as well, But use it without the dolly, nowt big enough on a farm to justify eight axles that was the reason I bought my Kenworth, One it's right hand driver and 2 it's double drive, But being retired now spending cash on models is not a great idea although I will get the new MF 82 265, And think up some way to get the up coming MarGe Lexion 8900, Regards Joe, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmmm Sorry never noticed you mentioned the Komatsu, I guess it is the metal tracked PC 400 / 450, The dimensions on that machine is Track gauge 9.42ft which equates to 3.53 inches, The Nooteboom cannot exceed 2.5 mtr divide by 32 and convert to inches = 3.30 And the Nooteboom comes with outriggers and boards, So yes no problem, Regards Joe.

catkom3 Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 From MarGe models via Facebook, Corona currently affects us all - some more, some less. Unfortunately, Corona also has negative effects on the development of our new models. Our partner companies worldwide cannot produce and ship according to plan. Delivery routes on the high seas suddenly break down. Planning is difficult. Our new LEXION is also affected, which we are unfortunately no longer able to supply for your collection this year. Instead, we are planning to deliver the LEXION 6800 and LEXION 6800 TERRA TRAC at the beginning of 2021. We ask for your understanding at this point. Please stay safe! Regards Joe.
