There's a Matbro tr 250 110 on eBay ,in Crewe, Cheshire ,breaking for spares, it may have the same headstock

No slightly different. TR250-110 and the terex T250 have metric pins and the older ones have imperial. apart from any of the pins that go through a bearing like on the lift ram and the tilt ram they are all metric no matter what model.

of cause if the metric holes are worn a bit then you can often get the imperial pins in a metric hole! think there is 0.8mm difference(y)

Looking at the website you would think this firm might have one

Everyone keeps posting that link but that is the list of all the matbros he has sold over the years. He usually has two or three about him though. Think he had a few teleram 40 broken last time I was there

Tmet in Northern Ireland have a ts270 for breaking, but no idea if the headstock is the same.

No ts270 is completely different. Pins are all in different places and they have ita2 pallet fork rails were as the tr250 have ita3 rails.

The op @Ds7984 seems to have gone quiet? Got some pics of what you actually bought?
Was in cherries today collecting stuff and having a rummage! They didnt have one apart from a scrap one off a terex that was in for repair but was well past it.

East Yorkshire machinery is run by the son of QF tractors. Both a set of thieves. They are around the farms round here all the time asking if there is anything for sale. I think East Yorkshire is worse than QF.
 
hi I bought a matbro tr250 from East Yorkshire machinery ltd.
Firstly I'd like to warn anyone who is thinking of buying from them, they advertise on eBay and farmers weekly. They are nothing but cheating, thieving barstewards! They come across a decent people, but all they want is your money. When I got my machine in December 16 a month after paying for it, it came without a headstock and since then they have been promising me one,but they just lie. So I've got trading standards involved and they apparently have a file 2 inches thick on this company!! I'm going to take them to court, so if anyone else has a case, contact me. They need to be put out of business.
But also I need a headstock,so if anyone can help me with that. Please contact me.
Dave.
You cauld try morris corfields,they used to sell loads off matbros,they might have something in there yard.
