Nice tractor, found the following in a brochure it may help to explain SLE SLE.pdf

was this tractor available for sale in the USA when launched then?

thanks for posting it does help to clarify some of the options that were available anyway

I would like to know a bit more about this tractor if anybody has any information it would be appreciated. I have seen a brochure and from what i can recall the E stood for economy, non adjustable link ends,no assist rams, no dual power no draft control? some of the above would be optional i suggest? Was the tractor sold in UK only?

i find the same, why are they going so much in these auctions?

is this a difficult brochure to source?

Just wondering what does the M and the X stand for in the above?

thanks for the reply ...i recall reading that it did stand for two wheel drive....now another chestnut for me is HY-MAC ...many people may not know what it stands for...well maybe many people do know ...lets see!

what does TW stand for?

I have been collecting models for 30 years or so in a small way ..i have about 500 but that includes some 150 plant and machinery ... I try and collect plant and tractors which are mint and boxed only..britains, conrad, nzg, dp, scaledown, brian norman, mosly but i have had to cut back a lot in the past 5 to 6 years ...even losing a bit of interest as i have drifted back into collecting quality brochures of 70s 80s tractors ....have a small collection for 30 odd years ...200 brochures or so which has expanded a lile...for me it is the classics which i drove....i like to attend the shows and look but of course like many of you on here i can not resist the model of a tractor i drove in my youth...the real joy for me in collecting for some time now therefore is a quality top spec piece ...just a few thoughts
