I know it is the wrong color tractor and planter
but it works. On a 10 acre field.

Nothing wrong with that under 100hp Massey. It was always the over 100hp Masseys that had lots of trouble. The 4X4 Masseys were good too. The 1130 and 1150 were marginally good, but any thing newer were disasters. That is what wrecked Massey here in the US. Massey has had the under 100hp market for years. Their 2000 series is made them go belly up. Their last few combine were a joke as well, neighbors traded off there 410-510 for 750s and had nothing but trouble.

I had a 165 that would shred your above statement. But that's cool, somebody has had bad luck with just about anything given enough opportunity.

My 1100 gasser is a pretty nice piece.
