Drove one of these from Holme near Peterborough to Chipping Norton when I was 16 around 1969 towing an articulated trailer full of farm tools etc for sugar beet seed harvest. Great tractor, fast for the time.
go and do what bmc intended hook her up to a howard rotorvator get her dusty nice tractor , i knew a local farmer back in the day who blanked top gear of his drivers kept driving into the ditches going to fast
We used to have one in the beginning of the 70s. At that time tractors speed was 25 km/h, but the Nuffield made 55 km/h pulling 30 tons! In rough field it was a disaster, but for that work we had a Ford.
Years ago we bought a new 10/60 . Sadly the gearbox was made out of genuine Bathgate Scottish Cheddar cheese. One hell of an engine but many a time my dad had to crawl home in 1st low (The only gear it would go in!) The dealer's never got it right and we eventually traded it in for a Massey 165 ( Which is still going apparently!)
Looks and sounds good.👍

I trattori d,epoca avevano un suono meraviglioso al minimo..quelli moderni sembrano del frullatori
What a beaut! Got myself a little 4/25. Neat tractors. Thanks for posting :-)
Looks safe

Beautiful example, the only thing missing was the toolbox behind the seat mounted to the top of the hydraulics
The British Government policies of the day have a lot to answer for, Yes Minister/Prime Minister was so true.

Good day from Ont Canada Over here it was other way around, engine didn't stand up, They use all 60 hp & head gaskets did not. Thanks
Sadly not! Just took this to help sell it.....which it has. Heading for a new working life in Portugal...
