Lord Ferguson Posted October 23, 2007 Posted October 23, 2007 Well.... at Spalding I stopped to look at Dr Andy Sewel's stand... drooled over his JCB's.... swooned at his ploughs... then an MF30 seed drill caught my eye... how much is that mate I ask .... ?630 comes the reply... I raise my eyebrows and walk off... Anyway... I popped back twice to have a look... cross with myself I didn't have ?600 spare.. I walked off mumbling to myself I must try to work harder Toytrac came around... Andy's there again... so I stop by for another drool over his 30 drill.. (well... a guy can dream can't he)... anyway... I get chatting about his MF products... and he shows me his 22 trailer.... "It just so happens I have one here that needs a home" Andy tells me... Anyway... I part company with a substantial amount of money and it's mine all mine - to say this is a detailed model would be a understatement in the extreme.... it's a full functioning miniature replica of the real thing.... seems perfect in every detail to me I am as chuffed as punch with this model... and I'm now saving VERY HARD for a 30 drill sometime... That's not all... the REAL bad news... Andy's in the process of making a 1:16 precision model of an MF1200 * - You should have seen mine and Sean's jaws hit the floor when he told us.. we both placed an order there and then Worse still... he's got plans to make an MF760 combine as well - Bankruptcy court here we come :D Anyway... enough waffle... cop a load of this beauty Quote
Lord Ferguson Posted October 23, 2007 Author Posted October 23, 2007 It's even got the weeks stamp on the rear crossmember Note the pen :D - Oh... and note the ram :o Brakes cables Quote

Lord Ferguson Posted October 23, 2007 Author Posted October 23, 2007 I've just noticed the axle moves as in the real thing... it was set in "rearmost" when new - but you could adjust it on the farm Quote
CX820Joe Posted October 23, 2007 Posted October 23, 2007 Sorry drifting off topic a bit but was there any more on the Claas Senator which has been forthcoming for the last 8 years or so? Wouldn't ever be able to have one mind - when I emailed a few years ago he said it'd cost about 2 grand! :o Quote
