McCormick/Landini

[rookswood]

The MF 5455 is struggling on the round baler and needs replacing really. Our local dealer has become a McCormick dealer and want to stick with them as the service is excellent.

Anyone had any experience of McCormick or Landini tractors. Gonna be looking for around 130hp and about 5 to 10 years old I would think.

Just Google up the UK tractor sales table...and ask yourself why has their market share fallen so much in the last 10 to 15 years.

Last of the MC130 s would be my choice if you can find a tidy one.

I had a 2010 mc130. Good tractor, not too complicated, not sure what the newer ones are like. Only went as was offered a decent price to change it.

Mccormack use smaller dealers as well not like legalised price fixing like a certain big name.

Mc115 or 130 excellent tractors. Comfortable with proven drive train. If you want 6 cylinder then go for a mtx. Biggest problem you will have is finding one of the above models with low hours. People hang on to them knowing that there replacement will probably have adblue,dpf, egr and various electronic modules to make it all work

Ok sounds promising, found a straight looking mc130 only a couple of hours away. Does any one know if the tier 3 Perkins in them suffer with the injection pump and injector problems like Massey's of that era?

If its got a delphi pump on, then yes. Factor that into your bargaining.

5 yrs old will get you the first of the next generation. Not sure of the model numbers but they're FPT engines with ZF gearboxes. Won't be a lot wrong with those. Unless you're fashion conscious, of course
