Looks rather smart on both Axions and Arions😎 I did notice that Phil, they look smart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CX820Joe Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 This has just turned up, was expecting it tomorrow so was surprised to get a text saying it was due today. Its a Ros model, and have had a few bad experiences with their models in the past but I am happy to say this one is fine...there was a small globe shaped piece floating around in the box but I don't know where it is from! It's a shame about the tyres, but all in all a decent little model. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bonnets slightly wonky but ive had worse. The front tyres are too big, I measured the radius at 55mm, should be 50mm to be correct and then they wouldnt rub. One front link arm is fine the other drops, so all I did was remove the screw with my micro screw driver and then removed the arm, and then squeezed the bracket a little tighter with a pair of pliers. Then refitted it all and now its spot on. Simples. Im changing the front tyres anyway so not bothered about them and reglued the loose cab rail. Now it looks the part, very nice but a bit fragile.

It’s all in good condition, but no cab, so I made up an order for spares from Brian Norman to include one. As happens a lot the Britain’s plastic has discoloured over time, so I’ll have to pick which of these aerosols matches best, to make the white cab match. Finished spraying this ones cab, looks a bit more blended in now 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a shame about the tyres, but all in all a decent little model. Ive been looking for one of these, but the price has been scary (and doesn't seem to have got much better since last time I looked). it would appear the 6140 has been replaced by a 6C now as well. fun fact, there are 2 versions of this model: a Ros general release (as above) and A deutz dealer version with part code: M09D117 Version differences from what I can see are the dealer version, doesn't have a front weight, has a number plate and misses out the tyre advertisement. some website also mentioned the drawbar comes with a pin.

There is a pin for the drawbar on this one...I had seen a few pictures of it (and the related Same etc) with the front weight sitting on the floor but it holds up OK on mine. I had thought it too expensive but the price had dropped to 55 something which I thought was more reasonable, and although I've had the aforementioned issues with Ros models previously am very pleased with this release. I am tempted by the Same too, thought I'd quite like the lower Hp Virtus that UH did preferably. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phil phoenix Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Im still trying to get a 6215 black Deutz but I suspect its exactly the same as the 6175. They are an odd looking tractor from the side view, but look very impressive from the front on the road. You must take some pics with the cab door open Joe as it look's like Weise have done a great job of in cab detail on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CX820Joe Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 I will take some close up pictures when it comes out of the box Phil, I will have a reshuffle of my display shortly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CX820Joe Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 Was going to take some close ups of the Deutz, noticed when I removed it from the box though that the tyres felt very sticky. Had them off and washed them in hot soapy water, still feel quite sticky, perhaps not so bad though. Probably isn't cause to send it back (was the last one anyway) so maybe will just have to put up with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
