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.

They will look nice at my Liebherr 11200 parking lot! I would assume that nzg is working on the jibs for these now, as they have no announced liveries beyond theses and the Grohmann.  Mark Homer, you just need someone overhere to buy it for you and sent it your way. The TWH prices in Europe are asinine!

Yes Mark I am seriously considering buying from a dealer in the US as I want the Meade Crane Hire version too, but i'm afraid the shipping costs will be very high and I might get caught for more money at customs.

Paul R What I have seen trolling through various on-line shops is same # with diffent currencies attached to it. If a model is 329.99US here, I will see it for 329.99Euros plus you have the VAT taxes we don't. I don't know who is causing it, TWH? Anyway they need to lower the wholesale cost to compensate for some of the differences in currencies and VATs, etc. Anyway, they look nice. Mark

Mark well put Mark, Well put indeed, to be honest I dont see how TWH are gonna sell all the new versions of the gmk 5095 and 4100L that they are releasing because an awful lot of them are european liveries which may not sell in great quantities in the US and are too expensive to buy in europe where many of the companies are based. The nicest versions of the groves made yet were the two wiesbauers and their still readily available in many model shops, so how will they sell the same quantity (150 pieces) of even less popular liveries at those prices if they cant even shift all the wiesbauers? We'll just have to wait and see, but I can see them hanging around for a long long time unless they drastically overhaul their prices!

It may be difficult to move all of them Homer, especially with the new batch of 112's coming out. For what it's worth, I just picked up a Wiesbauer 4100 and it was difficult to find. Had to finally get it from the Manni shop. Bug

I'd rather have a room with a bare wooden floor and no curtains but full of models than have an empty room but with "a nice carpet" and curtains. Imagine I posted a thread with pictures saying "hey everybody, check out my new carpet, oh, and dont you just love my sunset curtains?, I just adore them and they only cost me $4000". Paul, I look forward to seeing a minimum of 80% of your collection on display in your new model room/house!.

I am not under any illusion that I'll be able to display it all though. But you never know! Paul R
