Thats a lovely model, all metal I take it?

Shame they don't do a Bomag 120 or thereabouts!

[GB_Groundworks]

no they are more toys made of plastic, rather than the larger scale models in diecast 1:50scale.

like the size and scale of your lads volvo skid steer.

they do some of the bigger rollers

I was thinking of you and your lad today Giles when I walked past the model shop in the Trafford Centre and they have the remote control john deere dozer in the window

[Tony McC]

Trafford centre, Mick? Bloody hell!

Either you're having a mental breakdown or you're on a promise! Those are the only two reasons any male goes to that place now the building work is completed.
