MF 8480

[Farma Parma]

From http://www.fwi.co.uk/articles/20/10...es-launches-into-270-370hp-tractor-market.htm

Developed in conjunction with Agco sister company Massey Ferguson, Valtra's five new flagship models share a common platform with MF's new 8600 range.

Both use an 8.4-litre Sisu six-cylinder engine and stepless CVT Vario gearbox developed by another Agco sister company, Fendt. They are both built in the Massey plant at Beauvais, France, although cab and control systems differ between brands.

Ive seen them come down the line at Beauvais myself !!!!

no brainer really ,, magnum or 8000,s deere , might use a bit more fuel ,only might ,they all sup it when you get all the hosses pulling , deere is best in my opinion , plenty room in cab, handy controls compared to some

You canna knock them Yank Built Deeres way way better than just about everything else in that HP
