This pair arrived today:













They really need a load to show the off at their best, but I have to say I am well impressed with this set. Certainly an improvement over the 1st generation of SPMT's that NZG made.

Looks like a great piece. Would love to see it set up with a load. Must be tough to get all of the tires turned and suspensions adjusted.

Setting the tyres was awkward but getting the suspension adjusted was too bad. But it does need a load!

Seems ages since I've added any photos! But not that many models have come and work has been terribly busy of late. Weather here in the UK is awful, at least in Lincolnshire anyway so I've had to resort to taking pictures inside!

Keller and Hess Volvo:















Hoping to have a good load for this next week Teeth

Friderici TGX 8x4:

















This does come with a Nooteboom 4 axle telestep but I had a problem with mine. WSI Service are taking care if this and I should have a replacement next week.

I kind of knew that if I saw this model in person, resistance would be futile :( As always, Jim and Brenda were on top form and I had a pretty good chat with them.

But what a great model this is:

Cheers Gus. I also hope your model arrives in good condition. To be fair to WSI, the new service policy has worked well for me and I'll have a replacement arrive on Monday. Perhaps took a little longer than I had hoped but they are sending UPS to pick up the damaged models and drop off the replacements.

WSI MB Actros 6x6 with Scheuerle modules - Zaugg:























I think this is probably one of the most underrated WSI Scheuerle models at the moment. But if anyone was looking to buy a model with Scheuerle modules then this is one I'd recommend. The Actros 6x6 alone is very nice! I like the fact that this can be used as a vessel bed or narrow beam also.

Now I just need a CAT 365 or Liebherr 954C to put on it, but it appears both these models are as rare as hens teeth! Or I just haven't looked hard enough................

I really like that Actros.
So being ignorant here.......are you saying the Scheuerle modules will separate from tha center beam or is that a purpose built (one piece) trailer?
I know so little about Euro configs.

Chris,
Yes, that is what I am saying. WSI included two sets of adapters in this kit so I could change it from the current narrow beam configuration to a vessel bed (wide beam) configuration. You could also take out the bed completely and run the modules in one line.

I've chosen the narrow beam configuration because I want to put an excavator on it at some point.
