This is several years old "news" in Europe, and I am pretty sure it is a plastic cased clam-shell design.

Afaik, the last real decendant of the P5000/P500 was the P543.

There was 545 too I think of the old series.

These are 4600/5000/5200 series are not the same.

Btw, I just notised that the Partner brand has been officially replaced by the McCulloch brand on the Norwegian market - and some other ones..... ::)

That isn't a surprice, but I don't have to like it!

Very sad to see Partner, once the premier chainsaw brand and company in Sweden, first turned into a consumer brand and then replaced by McCulloch brand. Soon the Partner brand will be no more. That is the Husqvarna way - buy up chainsaw companies, put them on a pedestal for a few years, then grind them in the dirt and throw them out.
Husqvarna has too many brands covering the same market segments, and must reduce the brands to make more profit. It kills profits when the brands compete against each other for the same markets, and the brands have to keep dropping their selling price to get the orders.
The management of Husqvarna are no longer chainsaw savvy people; but merely enterprisers that are only interested in the almighty dollar which continues to elude them.
