super6 Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 Bought mine yesterday at Great Dorset, I like it. A few comments. Front and rear tyres are larger than 5000 ones, cab is a complete new moulding with separate lower panel, bonnet side decals not brilliant, as mentioned, dual power ones are though! weight frame a little bit too long, wings sit properly now but no rear lights. Quality control is not brilliant as regards bonnet decals and fixing of pre cleaner and exhaust to bonnet - glue residue, mine are straight though Plenty of scope to mix and match with the 5000 chassis/parts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fendt-man-matty Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 i read the 4 page story in the classic tractor mag, really interesting like. its says that they dont expect the 7600 wont be that popular, but i would probly buy the 7000 and the 7600 because thats what my neighbour has and 5000's. it would be good if britains made a ford 4600 aswell. all great tractors but Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deerepower Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 well got mine today and what can I say BRITAINS MUST EMPLOY MONKEY'S ON QUALITY CONTROL, one of the rear tyres on the wrong way round, decals one put on to high and the other on upside down, linkage don't work at all plastic has stress lines where they have forced it trying to make it work, and remains of glue on one of the rear wheels. Let me know when the funeral is because Britains is dead....long live Siku and U.H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Akey Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 Shows what their "quality control" is like!........obviously non exsistent! Mind you DP, that might be the only one to have slipped through, thereby a collectors piece! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
