Pretty much all the books on tractors are in German - what you will find James is that no two tractors ever appear the same. It's a whole new Porsche world out there - I've found it really interesting learning what little I have so far on them! I totally agree! Over this last 24 hours I've learned ...

Oooops..... my finger just slipped on the mouse and I hit the buy it now! Speaking with local Porsche expert Peter Bradley just convinced me that it was priced reasonably, the same as a P111 and much easier than going to Europe. He said it's the only Allgaier Porsche he doesn't have in his collectio...

Ok so I've managed to squeeze in some more research...... I've just realised this Allgaier was advertised in last months Tractor & Machinery magazine and was priced at 3 grand!!! The advert describes it in pretty much the same way as the ebay description but states the engine is getting tired! A...

I'm off to view this on Saturday morning with my Dad. I wanted to go tonight but it's kept outside and there is limited light. I just spoke to the guy over the phone & he added a few extra bits of detail. The hydraulics don't work but it runs ok. What are people's opinions on this Allgaier? Does...

I have a contact who has a Junior in Germany that I'm holding out for, he's an importer and is going to bring it over with his next haul! I would seriously consider 'clubbing in' with someone to fetch one if the contact falls through. My uncle went on holiday to the south of France in the summer and...

I keep looking on the European sites to see what is available & it's just a matter of waiting for the right tractor to turn up. The main limiting factor is a tractor being in the right place at the right time when I can actually make time to collect it as I 'only' have school holidays. Hence why...

I keep seeing the odd one in Farming publications but I'm usually too late - so frustrating! I'll drop on one at some point - I really can't be bothered to go to the Continent for one, but I will if needs must - it's just time is at a premium! There was a Standard for sale in Albi (France) about 4 w...

Porsche Juniors for sale & Peter Bradley collection.

Hi.

Does anyone know of any Porsche Juniors for sale in the UK by any chance?

Also, I work in Sheffield & would very much like to see the Peter Bradley collection but read it's understandably appointment only. Does anyone know how to contact him to make an appointment?

Thanks.

Gill.
