Isn't this an 8240

I thought *all* 8340's were turbo's = only the very first white roof 8240's were N/A, before they added the turbo under the "altitude compensation" banner.

The first 8340s were non turbo and presumably would have been on K Reg (did they not have a black stripe on the roof). I would assume there was, embarrassingly, very little between the 83 and the 82 in the early models and a turbo was fitted to liven things up.

That's right pete. The first 82 and 83 were identical except the pump turned down a bit in the 8240. My 82 was J reg
(92).
The turbo came on the 83 from Sept '93.
None of the 8240s were turboed when new.

Thought they went blue roofed when became New Holland on the bonnet??
The first blue roof models had Ford on the bonnet and the the NH(Fiat) badge on the nose cone.
Later models had New Holland on the sides of the bonnet and small Ford decals on the sides of the nose and the NH badge on the front.

Out of curiosity,just had a look at the CNH parts list... Quad mod also came in Sept '93 along with the turbo...
Would @Tealo 's turbo on K reg have been fitted outside of the factory?
