merlina Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 I'm looking at an eglu classic for sale on ebay just down the road from me (has never happened before - they're always at the other end of the country!) Is there an easy way of telling whether it's a modern (new-ish) one or an older one with obsolete parts? (I've asked the seller but would like to be able to double check) Another double check - I have an estate car (large vauxhall) will the eglu fit in it ok? many thanks!

Egluntyne Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 These are Mark 1 Eglus. Smaller, wooden roosting bars, wire base ad smaller poo tray. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merlina Posted July 20, 2012 Author Share Posted July 20, 2012 thanks Egluntyne Hard to tell from pix But if it has plastic roosting bars it's a newer version? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gertie Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 The old classic mark one has a larger space above the door and a smaller door which is quite easy to spot on the pics. Depending on how old the classic is, the new style can also have wooden bars, so that doesn't help you tell! If you post the link to eBay maybe someone can ID it!

merlina Posted July 21, 2012 Author Share Posted July 21, 2012 Thanks! Wasn't sure if I was allowed to post the link - but here it is http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/120951558649?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649#ht_500wt_960 (I think it looks quite new, but am no expert and don't want to be caught out) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
