Re: 2016 Additions

Yes I have to agree very very hard to find. If the body casting is early there is a brace missing from the body Just behind the front axle which supports the base, very hard to see and I will try and photograph an Unpressed model next week to show this. J

No, you're wrong. It's a very, very hard model to find. (I've been looking for ages, but still haven't found one.)
I must agree....been flipping these for ever

A few more models added recently, nothing mint but they all came cheap (as is my style :) ) No hitch on the Cresta unfortunately but it still looks nice and I couldn't resist one of Graham's advertising buses that popped up for a fiver. Finally found a blue low loader, poorly advertised, for £38, it's one I thought I'd never own at a price I could afford. The Rentaset van was a real surprise because it was in a bunch without a baseplate, but it came and was easily popped in.

Not much came my way recently but I did catch this one, a bit tired but good windows and the hitch is intact.

The tractors seem to be multiplying down at the farm. Not mint, but pleased to add the version with the John Deere rear hubs recently.

Some great additions to the farm John, the large rear hubs is quite hard to find and in pretty good condition.
Some nice orange tractors as well.
