Udimore Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 RRP ?9.99 which is a joke really, well overpriced. Released at the same time as the Steyr Kompakt and the little case from which all are so similar apart from paintwork. Martin I know loves his but I would award it only 2.4521 out of 5 and most of that is the paintwork colour and its toughness once dropped on the floor and nothing broke off wouldn't recommend that treatment though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewHolland2 Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 I do like this model but there are a few things I would say against it...... 1) The lights are pretty poor compared to the likes of the TG305. 2) The steering isn't great with a pretty poor turning circle. 3) Detail isn't great for the money. However it is a nice change from the larger horse-power tractors we have in the model world, just some more in-cab detail or perhaps warning stickers would be better for the money though...... ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 Well I havn't seen one in the flesh... but From the pic I would give it 3/5 - ?10 is still "shut up" money... and at that price... so long as it's robust then I'd be happy with it \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

britainsnut Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 I think for what it is its ok, and rated it in the middle at 3*. the only thing is the balance between the price and it being kids toy/collectable model so if it was say ?2 cheaper then the balance would be right.

SPN Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 Has anyone put those wheels on the Britains Ford 5000? I think they'd look quite tidy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allis8550 Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 Rear wheels are spot on for 16.9R30's and fronts are not far off 11.6R24's , useful for conversions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihatepoundland Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 I do think the tyres on this model are very good, shame about the rest...but in a few years time when the broken ones come through ebay, they will be useful for conversion, I agree Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnDeerePower Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 not much detail on it the wheels look plastic and to shiny plus its a new holland out of 5 i would give it 2 for all those reasons. as soon as i got mine it went straight back on ebay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PDH Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 Up to a yaer ago I'd have bought this as soon as it was released. Glad I didn't buy immediately but will look to get one when they hit bargain prices. It's not a collectors model, only really has the name of Britains going for it. I'll give it 5.
