farmernick06 Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 Corr blimey Richard, some extremely impressive kit out there. Have a soft spot for the Lexions, the local contractor got his hands on a tracked 580 last year and again this year, big old things. Lovely kit mate, thanks for posting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard de Florennes Posted June 10, 2007 Author Share Posted June 10, 2007 mighty impressive... some $$ in that lot.. looks like they dont do much work? everythings so clean :D They clean their implements regularly in order to have them looking so godd for another years; especially when they know of some high-ranking visitors expected. By the way, I can assure you they are used very well as they did not spend so much money for static displays only.

I am Continental European and do only know the metric system ;-)) - is that big enough for you?: By the way, I love our ultra-flat landscape, as our areas wording says: "You can see on Monday who will visit you next Sunday" ;-)) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
