Valtra T234 Review: Farm mach. journal

[Finn farmer]

Going to read it today . Good to see this. I have just ordered a good spec N174D. Went to the factory last week. You could see they care what they are doing unlike some other factories I’ve been too.

The factory is pretty well organized and clean, i've been there only once, but it left a good impression. They didn't show us the Unlimited studio though, wonder if it's a secret?

Yeah I’m on my 3rd

Never been offered a trip tho

I hadn’t until I asked :/. Just ordered our third. Have a n142v t203d and just ordered n174d

Same here. I was very impressed with it. The unlimited studio is basically a posh shed. It won’t let me post a pic :/

Are you based close to TNS Littleport depot 1690?

The article didn’t mention there’s a circlip on the main shaft in the backend that gives way and requires cab off and backend out
That’s happened on lots of them

Don't think this applies to the varios(direct)had our versu done as a recall last month.

About 4 miles. Can see it over the fields tho.

Yes I do remember seeing a pair of the older shaped Valtras parked by a barn on the Pymoor road a few months ago.
What colour will your new one be? Theres a nice silver 174N one in the yard at present.

That’s our pair. Call In if you pass again. N142 in blue and t203 in red. I’m having white as I collect David browns. Hehe.

This white T174 one was in there last week, I would certainly call in when your new one arrives

I do like them in white. My neighbour who I work with has a grey n174v on order too. Will look good when we are working in the same field

I spoke to my mate at TNS a couple of weeks ago and he said that initially there was very little interest in the Valtras in the first year they had them and no sales out of Littleport, now everyone wants a Demo and their were several on order, obviously you and your neighbour are two of them. And out my way Gs have had a seventh green one, their neighbours have bought three and a chap in the next village has one on order as well.

They are getting more popular. Tho I love my older ones. My neighbour had his from chandlers.

Hmmm.......the article didn't say it was better than a wonky old 7610.

Need to give the Valtra around 30 years of hard work before it can earn that crown

Why Chandlers when TNS are literally at the top of the road

Aye, its noticeable that it is now one of the more spoken about brands on here. They have an interesting history to.

When I had a go in a new direct, the rep assured me that there was very very little MF in the build

Think it’s just the A series where they share gearboxes and parts
