They're not about, unless either got a million hours or asking 30 grand for low hours one.
I would be in a happy place today if I could have found one of those first off.

Was thinking that when typing.

Darn trouble is with the power to weight ratio spot on, excellent high capacity hydraulics and 'conventional ' transmission it was (is) at the pinnacle of perfect ploughing tractors.

'Course as we well know , Sometimes machines can be developed to far :rolleyes:

Thanks for all the input, will of course probably decide to sit it out and carry on as is, dont need bigger tractor for 9 months of year. Plough would be mounted slatted Rabe or Lemken.
As @Flat 10 says, putting 5f of my 120hp would be best compromise...

...if it ever runs again.
Will be pulling a 7 furrow slatted rabe with a case 7110 tomorrow hopefully....never used a plough myself before though so could be interesting
