Which would still be € 620 euro's or $ 827 USD...

Considering it's WSI, I am hoping for about € 320 euro's ($ 412 AU / $ 426 USD). Would be reasonable, and in the same price range as WSI's other large movers like the Scheuerle INTER-combi's or Nooteboom MWT's.

The 2 4x8 units I have, cost be $400ish each here in Aus. Thats why I hope for under 800Au.

I understand, they are € 365 euro's in Europe. But WSI is cheaper than TWH, so I'm hoping the model will be cheaper as well. Besides, the TWH models were all limited editions. I suspect WSI will mass produce the trailer in various liveries, just as they have done with the Scheuerle's and MWT's. This will spread the cost, and make the model cheaper for collectors. Honestly, no matter how good the model looks, I will never pay € 620 euro's for a single heavy haulage model, and i think few collectors will.
