Why haven’t they put the new 8s cab on it

Too big for this size of tractor is their reasoning.
Cab is he only thing that lets current ones down.

All seems a bit of a let down given the big build up to me. All they needed to do was put Valtra N/T cab on them. Slap some 62 series square lights like they seem to have done here to make them look MF’ish and you’d have something much fresher looking and a far more pleasant and spacious place to spend a day in.
 
And the fact still remains, I cant get the fridge on the floor in any of our other tractors. Theres either not enough room or something in the way.

And I'm sure theres a significant amount of changes made to it. Just not the cab shape..
But yes, they probably should have held off the 7S name till they put a new one on it. (But not that God ugly 8S cab please.... makes the tractor look like it has a broken back the way it leans backwards)
Plenty of room for a big fridge in a Valtra cab :cool: :cool:

I thought they would launch with the brand new engine range that are meant to be far quieter and more economical on fuel than the current engines and indeed compliant and suitable for road transport use as well as offroad vehicles.

Only cosmetic changes unfortunately.
The rear axle and lift on the Dyna6 models need beefing up.
It stupid of MF to now not have any mid weight 200hp tractors, you can choose between the light weight 7S.180 dyna6 or the heavy weight 8S.205 Dyna7, no direct replacement for the 7720/2S.

They may well fill a few gaps over the next few months and they regularly and continually update and refresh models during a production run. Isn't that what this range is? I have seen nothing in their videos that suggests that they are worthy of a new model range designation. I suspect that their promotional material is selling them short.
