Norscot (in america) is the licensed manufacturer of Caterpillar models.

they offer about 3-4 diecast kits for assembly of Caterpillar condtruction plant. i think theres a bulldozer, front end loader and an excavator.

they come pre painted and wouldnt take long to assembly.

google Norscot and Ireland or england and you should find a supplier closer than USA.

oh these things are 1:50 scale
