HELP!! .............. Orange Valmet logging tractor

[JC]

I know that this model is quite rare, but how rare is it? When were these released and how many were made?

[britainsnut]

As far as i know they were only produce in 1997 which was the last year for that model. As well as the colour variation they also changed the style of exhaust. As for how many were produced i cannot answer that one.

i have one of these unfortuntaly no box though i heard somewhere before that there was only 2000 made but im not sure if that is right

I'm not familiar with the tractor you're talking about. Is it the Valmet "city" articulated tractor or the older Valmet that came with the logging trailer?

[JC]

Like the old logging one but as far as I know it never came with a trailer, here's a picture;

Howd'ya figure that one out then civilpek? Thats a ?1 to ?0.44 exchange rate!! Its usually more like 65 to 70 pence. Looks like you've been ripped off somewhere. You don't deal with AIB do you?

[civilpek]

;D im afraid i dont really deal wit any bank due to lack of money to begin with! i was just using my own conversion technique for civilpek topia land obviously it is subject to some small margins of error  i saw it for €90 on one of those dutch sites a while back that was boxed of course when i got mine it was in the ploughing match a few years ago forget what i paid for it not too much though
