What’s MF165 worth?

[Vizslaman]

I have been offered this MF165
What is it worth

 

[Vizslaman]

Anyone recognise the cab

 

[agrimax]

A mk1 with 203 engine and dry brakes with a Lambourn cab,possibly a MK6.
£3000 maybe.

 

[Vizslaman]

Is it possible to remove the cab and run it as open station ?

 

[agrimax]

No problem to whip it off and fit MF mudguards (to make it look right) or unbolt or cut off everything else and leave the Lamborne mudguards,bearing in mind it would require a roll bar if you are intending working it,which would then require removing and refitting the guards to facilitate it.

Yes, easy, biggest issue is finding the correct mudguards

 

[sahara]

As @agrimax has said, It looks like a Lamborne cab, there is a company adverting in the Classic Tractor where you can get bits for it.

Thanks guys.
I walked away from it at £3'500
To much work to make it look decent and roadworthy.

Incredible that they are so collectable as there seems no shortage of them,will the bubble burst one day like the tulips

 

[Vizslaman]

yes and I wonder how today's Tractors will hold up price wise in 50 years time.

in fact will any of the fancy electronics be available ?
