Triple triangle value
A Massey Ferguson model is considered to be a safe bet when it comes to buying a tractor for work and/or play. A blend of Perkins engines and Massey Ferguson sub-assemblies has proved to be a worthy combination, with many of the company’s ranges gaining critical acclaim over the years.
Today, the company’s tractors built during the 1960s, ’70s and ’80s, in particular, have a reputation for productivity and reliability, but with so many to choose from, which should you buy?
A tractor is capable of any job if it is matched with the appropriate implement, but to make your choice more straightforward we have split the tractors into four categories – sub-50hp, 51-75hp, 76-100hp and 101-125hp.
We have also enlisted the help of Chris Clack, who held several positions at Massey Ferguson during the period we are focussing on, including Product Manager for the 600 Series tractors, based at MF’s Central Marketing Group in Stoneleigh. Chris has a wealth of experience with all ranges, from the 100 Series to the 3000 Series, and is well versed in their manufacture and operation.
Experience has shown that these models have a great deal to offer, but their popularity is often reflected in their price tag. Our aim is to highlight the model that we consider to offer good value for money to those looking to purchase a Massey Ferguson tractor for work and/or ‘play’, according to power output.
