Re: Britains 3c mk3
Just received my Britains 1.32 scale JCB 3C mk111 and it is excellent 
, they have captured the look and feel very well and at £22.50 on ebay its a gift.
Cab detail is superb down to the red inlay on seat and backactor has realistic full range of movement , front wheels steer .
If I was being hyper critical the front bucket does not fit flat to the ground and seems to lack crowd, maybe they would have been better off modelling the standard bucket instead of a fixed one piece 4in1 ,the rear wheel centres look a bit small.
But at this price you could buy one to modify , I am sure the accessory boys will soon market bits for this .

They must have based the rear wheels on the 26" JCB 3D rear wheels as they look perfect scaled down versions of them but not the 28" 3C wheels. Wouldn't it be great if they did a Britains JCB 3D?

Yes that crossed my mind too they do look like 3D wheels and not 3C wheels; still looks a great model though.
