the 14 was re-sprayed last year, the 1594 is still mostly original, although the mudguards are beginning to get a bit of rust underneath, as is the bonnet due to chips from the hedgetrimmer, i can see her getting a re-spray within the next 5 years

she doesnt look too bad when she is polished up though (y)

So do you only have browns . What about a telehandler ? or can you manage without one

just the 4 browns and the MF combine...manage without a telehandler as all our grain goes direct into central storage

the loder tractor has been retro fitted with a quick hitch, so changine between pallet tines and the bucket is a 10 second job, it can lift 2 bags of fert, thats all we need of it really. The box drill is filled via a high tip trailer, as its more controllable filling via a grain chute than it is a half tonne bag
