Wiking Schluter Super 1250 VL Tractor Black 1972-91 WK087503 HO Gauge
The Schlüter Super 1250 VL tractor remains a legendary icon among agricultural enthusiasts, renowned for its robust design and powerful performance. While the classic Schlüter tractors are typically seen in their signature red, this model showcases the Super 1250 VL in striking black, as expertly recreated by WIKING. Produced between 1972 and 1991, with over 45,000 units built at the Freising headquarters, this high-performance tractor symbolises a remarkable era in farming machinery.
The model designation reveals key features: “1250” denotes the 125 hp six-cylinder engine, while “V” and “L” indicate all-wheel drive and an extended version, respectively. The extended model is distinguished by the vertical ventilation area on the side hood. At launch, the Super 1250 VL weighed an impressive 5.2 tonnes, continually refined until the final units rolled off the line in 1991, with a special edition in 1993.
Known as the “Schlüter Traktomobil,” this tractor introduced an innovative full-vision driver’s cab with wide sliding doors, allowing easy side entry and unhindered operation of attached agricultural implements. This design was pioneering at the time and is faithfully reflected in the model based on the first cab version with its distinctive structure above the hood.
- Driver’s cab in papyrus white for authentic contrast
- Roof, bonnet, front and rear fenders painted deep black
- Wheel rims, chassis, cardan shaft, axle mounting and steering shaft finished in papyrus white
- Steering wheel and exhaust detailed in anthracite grey
- Silver headlamps and vivid red tail lights for realistic detailing
This detailed scale model is perfect for collectors and farming enthusiasts seeking an accurate representation of the iconic Schlüter Super 1250 VL tractor.
