Re 1970 catalogue, I lit the blue touch paper there then John 😁 I have two different price lists for this year, prices are the same but purchase tax shown on top right corner of first one and on reverse of other mention is made of the prices shown on page 21 (ACW Items)

You did paul ive been on the lookout for one since you told me there was a different version to mine and picked this one up for a good price. I will have to double check my price lists but im sure there the same

I visited the local branch of Manns at Fransham (its a bit nearer than HQ at Saxham) to buy some Claas red spray paint and saw this Horsch Tiger Drill gathering dust in the display!  I had been looking for one for a while as its something big for my JD 8R too pull, but they are rare nowadays and only available for well over £100!!  So I  cheekily asked for some discount and got it bought for £45!!!😁  What a steal,  its a brilliant model too, which requires 400 hp too pull on the carpet farm😄

Just a comment @CX820Joe, you might find difficulty in coupling up the plough to UH tractors due to the headstock catching on the mid section of the tractor rear linkage, when I get a moment I'm going to modify mine. There's small screws where the linkage can be removed, and then reconnected after fitting to the tractor. A modification would allow the linkage section to be reduced in the horizontal plane, bringing it nearer to the plough making it look more realistic. Other modellers refer to plenty of standard paint colours available to match Amazone green. Otherwise my view is it's a fantastic plough model

Hi Mike, I noticed it was tricky to attach but managed to fit it onto the MF 7726, but didn't try anything else.  Alternative plan would be to remove the headstock and see if it will fit on my Wiking Fendt 828.

It does look like a very good model, am pleased with the baler too.
