one for the MF die hards

Never understood the fanfare surrounding Powerquad, having 3 separate levers (initially) to work the thing was a pain in the chuff, particularly when they were all on the right hand console. Case IH had the better box in their MX and CS ranges in my view.

Autopowr to be fair to JD, is pretty good in my view.

Don’t here of any problems with autopower nowadays but there were some horrendous stories in the early years

Could this be the future Massey Ferguson 9S?

As daft & random as that picture is ive notcied a few flaws that its pretty much not what your suggesting it is.
for as start its physically lower in overall height over the daft 8S
and its only got one much lesser mounted orange beacon.
So therefore for those reasons id say its deffo no Massey 9S
But it could be the model inbetween the 7S & 8S ive even heard there could be a 7.5S filling the power gap in the smaller chassis size.
above the now badged 7S.210
Who knows it could all be Hot air. :ROFLMAO:

There are absolutely two orange beacons and the dimensions do not seem absolutely smaller than an 8S
You should have a look to the comments and what little you can see of the rear axle too.

I’m yet to see an 8s in ‘real’ life. Saw one at a ploughing match and that’s it. We are dominated round here (south lincs) by cnh; Jcb and John Deere dealers but the marque on the increase seems to be valtra. I’m assuming massey tractors are still popular somewhere?
