I have to say though, mine is excellent, and could just be one of the best models wiking have produced. Packed with detail and a quality finish.

All 4000 nearly sold out from Claas so expect prices to rise! Edited April 7, 2016 by TM190 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris.watson Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 There will be a decal change to the the next model, so plenty to come, but not an 870 perhaps. Dealer I was at today had a spare one on the shelf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are selling it £35 cheaper on their own website. http://northwestfarmmodels.co.uk/products/wiking-132-claas-jaguar-870-with-orbis-750-maize-header-pu-300-grass-pickup-header-limited-edition Have bought stuff off them and they were very good.

Barry Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 I'm still not convinced enough to buy this model......i don't like the wheels!!!! Maybe that's just silly, and it probably looks a lot better in the flesh, I might just buy one for the collect-ability value! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justy 46 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 I would not mind having one considering they are a popular machine around my area.. But its just a bit too pricy .. Pitty they are only limited to 4000. That's what's shoving them up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
