Ok stretching it a bit I admit but the one on the left is an engineer tank:

That one made me chuckle. I witnessed someone taking exactly the same picture, in the same location, but with the Audi RS6 in the foreground.

One of those monsters that they had on Top Gear a while back - the photo doesn't really show how deep the trailer has sunk - the wheels are submerged.

Can I join in? I win the top trumps...

I have a colleague and local population who 'do' tractors big style.

He is 18, commutes by tractor every day to work, has 7 old skool working tractors, 2x dumpers and numerous other mechanical projects. Here is the parade of 30+ tractors that did a 40 mile loop around the Highlands, for fun and charidee.

Nice to see this thread back.

I can't wait to get a grey fergie,and a transfer box, and a wood splitter, so I can steal out to Forestry Commission log piles at the grey of dawn and pilfer wood for my big log stove.

It's going to be good.

You could be right on that Fordson.

The first Model N's were made at Cork in Ireland from 1929-32, in grey.

In 1932 production transferred to Dagenham and the paint scheme was blue/orange. The mudguards changed too - they are useful in dating Fordsons. Were they both missing?

From 1933 to 1937 they were produced in blue (this tractor?), and at the start of the war they were Harvest Gold. They had steel wheels for war production, and were replaced by the E27N Major in May 1945.

Just so you know 😀

It's not a MF35, it's a Ferguson TE20 (or similar). Surely?

It'll be a TEF 20 4 cylinder diesel. I've got one with a MIL Loader.

Nice tractor. I can't wait until I move back up the Highlands and can justify a Fergie (plus a transport box and a wood splitter) - being a Northern Irish man it's the only choice 🙂

I'm going for Fordson Major. Whats more interesting is they've got a horse drawn mower that hasnt been modified to be hauled by a tractor. Must have been people around and about since the building is newly sheeted.

Little grey Fergie, the little rats of tractors.

Dont mock the might of the Fergie, first machine I learned to drive. I was seven and have has a soft spot for them ever since.

It's a TE20 with a P3 conversion.
The other option was the infamous gold seal diesel engine (basically the Standard petrol engine converted to diesel, which is what mcmoonter probably has), which was renowned for it's poor starting.

The P3 conversion kit was supplied by Perkins, and was that succesful, it resulted in MF using Perkins engines as standard.

Tidy L-plate 3*50 Deere, one of the last. We used to have sequential number plated 3050 and 6400 on the farm where i worked and they were k-plate.

First time taking part in Tractor trumps. No idea what it is, just spotted it last winter on a snowy ride.

Is that a 3 cyl Perkins 35?

No, it is a home-bodged 3cyl apparently! Spoke to one of the tractor buffs and aparently he had all sorts lying around so built it up for fun - and has been runing it for 20yrs+ now.

It's a TE20 with a P3 conversion.
The other option was the infamous gold seal diesel engine (basically the Standard petrol engine converted to diesel, which is what mcmoonter probably has), which was renowned for it's poor starting.
The P3 conversion kit was supplied by Perkins, and was that succesful, it resulted in MF using Perkins engines as standard."

My 35x is a Perkins 3; it starts after a night indoors with a Shogun jumpstart!

And another. All they seem to day around my area is cut grass in ditches.
