Haven't got any pics of the front of the old beast but we've got a 550 DT. Got a quicke power loader on the front and spends most of its time on the log spitter. We are 3rd owners from new was sold by Bryan Jones in bishops castle. They are ok you get what you pay for!
My 445 DT. Does heavy topping of rushes with 5' topper, moves ton bags (shackles welded halfway along the loader arms), works an old Twose back actor & shifts loads of logs with bucket & transit box. Also rusts gently in the rain for the last 9 years but always starts. (Gear selection requires a ouijah board!)
They were dirt cheap at the time, and surprisingly reliable, especially since they were made from worn out tooling that fiat thought too expensive to be worth renewing.Amazing,nearly 2 days into this thread and everyone has words of praise for these little tractors.They had a dubious reputation even when new but I used to drive a 640DT which certainly pulled well for its size.
