I'll take it.....only 640 thousand euro...what a bargain!!Teeth

Funny I was having a really good look at this pic on their site earlier, it would be another model i'd love to repaint....

Now if NZG would only do a run of the 11200's of our "Other" fav Irish liveries i'd be a very happy chappy!!

indeed!!! Teeth

Why is "phonetically" spelt with a "ph"?

... It's better to be silent and thought a fool, then to speak up and remove all doubt

The complex of Newgrange was originally built between c. 3100 and 2900 BC,[2] meaning that it's aproximately 5,000 years old. According to Carbon-14 dates,[3] it is more than 500 years older than the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt, and predates Stonehenge by about 1,000 years.

Hmm that ac100 would be a lovely little repaint too! Think Did ye notice all the other cranes they have for sale on that site too? The recession must be hitting them bad Sad I never knew they had a gmk 5130.

I got an irish rugby magazine with the paper the other day which had pics of the new landsdowne road stadium construction in it. There was a few kavanagh cranes in the pics, one was a big grove with luffer lifting up roof sections.. i'm not sure but it could be the 300 tonner for sale on that website!

Good luck with the repaint cant wait to see some pics and speaking of Kavanagh's...











They were in Carrick on Shannon at the weekend lifting the new pedistrian bridge on to the side of the N4 bridge and their other Volvo was out at the railway bridge.

Fantastic pics Martin .....many thanks for sharing....

I just cant decide on which model to repaint, an LTM1200,AC200-1 or an AC500-1 ....It'll be my first repaint so I was thinking of the Liebherr???

Nice pics again martin, you were busy with the camera this week! Wink I'd love if WSI made that volvo too, it'd be a great little pair to have with the scania. That looks like the new shortened chassis thats on the weisbauer volvo that christian is making?

Kevin, the only problem with doing the ac200 is you wouldn't have much ballast to carry cos theres only 2 pieces with the model.. the ltm1200 might be a better option, you've 4 or 5 main weights as well as the cheek blocks so there would be a full load for the scania! Smile
