Following on from the next month classic tractor thread, where it was unanimously established that the Ford 7810 won:whistle: What was the best 100hp ish tractor of the 80's?

The MF 3080 Datatronic had to be the most innovative and it's a known fact that the 7810, 956 and Fiat 100-90 were well regarded but what else out there deserves a mention?

Does the orange colour make it easier to see?
Wouldn't want to be driving a JD on some jobs and in some country lanes, just because of the colour.

No it more to do with both other tractors having new tyres and these are well worn I don't think cessnas and deep tyre cleats mix too well!!
