K.L. Bulldog, rot 1:43

Founded in the 19th century, Heinrich Lanz AG in Mannheim very quickly developed into one of Germany‘s leading agricultural machinery manufacturers. The Mannheim company started to manufacture farm tractors in the 1920s, and therefore played an important part in the motorisation of German agriculture. Farm tractors with a single-cylinder glow-plug engine were produced with great success under the name of Lanz Bulldog. These tractors made such an impression that the name Bulldog became widely used in Germany as a colloquial expression for farm tractors in general. The Lanz Bulldog was also produced in several different countries under license. It was produced as the Ursus in Poland, the Le Percheron in France, the Pampa T01 in Argentina and as the KL Bulldog by Kelly & Lewis Ltd. in Australia.

Schuco presents the die-cast K.L. Bulldog in 1:43 scale. As is expected of Schuco models, a number of key features have been reproduced exactly with the greatest attention to detail.
