I've been on the lookout for a winter version of the 661 but to no avail. I emailed stihl asking about stock but they never replied I was wondering if they were about to release a super secret 662 or a mk2 661 with some mods as it seems odd for there to be no stock like this

There's a very tidy looking MS660 on Gumtree for £725. Nowt to do with me but it might interest someone.

I'm not selling it, just pointing it out. They are not exactly thick on the ground I notice.

About £1000 for the C-M with a 28" bar.

Get an 881 on loan if you can from your dealer.
Unless you’re climbing with it,
It’s so much more than a 661.
