britains new Holland 8630 one i was missing from the collection in authentic model box with engine detail. It's also missing its head lights for some reason it doesn't look to have been messed with and they aren't rattling around inside

Just got mine delivered, very pleased with it. I went for grey as there are plenty of the grey T series models around these parts and this Titanium colour looks very similar. Only seen the nice green version in dealer yards so far but Im sure it will become popular.

 

Which colours next?  Red, blue or maybe that fancy orange one 🙃

I'm sure a red one went past here the other day, it looked bigger than a T to me, but I only saw it in passing.

I thought you might go for the grey, they have sold out now from Brushwood as i was tempted to get one of those as well next month.  Very happy with the green though.  Wish I had some implements other than trailed it could be displayed with but can't have it all.

The all white and the matt black were sold at shows before xmas Paul. Smithy got one of the black ones. I think Toys Farm have got some in stock.

When you know theres probably another 6 or more colour variations coming I think I will just wait and see whats next.  The green and grey ones are selling very fast apparently.

Two trailer queens added to the Braemere fleet to use for advertising trailer kits, when I finally get them all drawn up! Both from brushwood, Massey 8s, a few at work around us, very stand out tractor whose looks have grown on me, and the UH Valta, couldn't decide which colour but luckily brushwoods stock levels decided that for me.

Great detail on both models but build quality isn't 100%, stiff wheels in the Massey, will loosen the front hub screw's, and the Valtras rear wheels aren't concentric on the axle. I like the little slider tab under the rear links they've introduced for keeping heavier implements up though!

Its a pity UH didnt put those Valtra Q rear wheels and tyres on the 8S from the word go James. They appear to be the same rims and tyres on the front, and after all the Q and the 8S share the same chassis.

I found myself driving behind an 8S earlier this week that I didnt know the farmer had bought one off, it was covered head to toe in sprayed on mud, really looked the part. And that neat horizontal flashing fender indicator (like on Audi cars) is really cool too😎

And look at this 8S.265 sitting in TNS yard on huge boots🤩
