A bit steep in my opinion with no improvement of the flaws of this model and just some tires they already use on other products. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toyfarmer1 Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 (edited) Don't blaim the messenger. We will see in 2023 what will be steep or not at 2 years of >10 % inflation/year. My feeI is that the new basic level for 2023 will be around a price tag of 100 euro's. See allready 2022 ROS SLH at 90.00 euros, UH Puma 240 Redtech Alfarosso at 90 euros, Weise Toys Fendt/Deutz reproductions at 90 euros. Claas Axion gen V at 90.00 euros. Fendt 818/820 wider tyres + some gear at 75 / 85 euros. USK basic Fendt 210/211 editions around 80/90 euros. Wiking Fendt 942 / 1050 re-editions with new cab interior will pass the 100.00 euro mark. Up to the collector to make his/her/its tradeoffs 😉. Old times of Britains at 2-3 quid won't come back Edited September 15, 2022 by Toyfarmer1 some clarifications 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justy 46 Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 (edited) As a big a Ford fanatic I am.. I just cant bring myself to purchase these UH Gen 1s and same goes for the 4wd 6610 and 7610 before them. The cab roof has too much overhang or it just looks too big. They probably still have cab interior errors also.. When it came to Gen 1s, I just basicly collected the Marge versions instead off UH... But maybe a few Gen 2 Super Q cabbed versions may follow. Better option in my opinion. Edited September 15, 2022 by justy 46 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fronts on the 7610 look to be from the CASE 1494. I'd have preferred the 6X 5000 rear wheels on the 5610 (and the correct air intake) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The UH roof almost has a top hat appearance. 😜 Marge for me. Edited September 16, 2022 by justy 46 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted September 16, 2022 Author Share Posted September 16, 2022 Uh will never be 100% right that we all know from past experience . Personally i think we will see more like this in the next year or two, factory conversions to all purposes, the new stuff will be around but cash flows tight and why not use what you have to hand. 70 odd euros does seem to be the norm now a days for uh and above stuff , maybe once it all settles down those prices will drop a bit , time will tell 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so... I cant see model sales rising. Only dropping. Everything is going up. But you know the saying.... What goes up. Must come down... 70 is steep for one off these considering the 7810 was only €30 when it came out back in 2011.. So UHs models have gone up 133% in price over the last 12 years... I wish my wages, increased by that amount too... 😅 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toyfarmer1 Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 (edited) It is not so much about the wages development in UK / Europe but much more about the Year over Year Chinese worker wages increases. Plus all others hits that we get like weakening currencies, material and transport cost, ......

phil phoenix Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Roof over hangs, series 2 fenders and the crowning turd in the waterpipe are the blue painted mudguard extensions! UH got the 7810s near enough spot on and failed on most every ford that followed. The worlds coming to an end on the 24th Sept, so if the models havent shown up by Friday forget it😄 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IH885XLMAN Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Atleast no front fenders on them i found them to be too nordic front fenders were something i only ever saw on 4wd in the early 90s like on the 3050 jd 4wds they look silly on 2wd 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anderson Agri Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 Must say I'm very impressed with the new Mf65 I'd be happy to say it's very good for uh given their track record on accuracy. Here it is compared to a Scaledown 65 in my collection. The uh one is more detailed I think. Nice little model 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJH Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 (edited) Many new MF models will be released, but what will it be... 🤔 UH5351 - Massey Ferguson Tractor UH6342 - Massey Ferguson TH.8043 UH6457 - Massey Ferguson ...

phil phoenix Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 A big baler is probably on the way. Also it surely makes sense to do their biggest volume selling tractor in the ag market which in these parts is currently the 7718S, so presumably that would be a 7S.180 in the new models which are being trickled out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CX820Joe Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 I think the cab is that colour Mike, so it may be the actual finished model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
