Ziko Posted December 21, 2009 Author Share Posted December 21, 2009 Looks very nice Ziko just out of intrest what was the top speed of the real version? It was 50 km/h, quite a speed back then! The normal version had either a 30 km/h or a 40 km/h gearbox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdc Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 That's a nice job Ziko. It looks like it's going fast even when standing still Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fred Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 ahh thanks They were mostly hand built and said to be the "Rolls Royce" of tractors.Very popular in certain EU countries and still have a notable following. Not that common in England but my uncle had two of them and I got to drive the smaller of the two. One was 200hp(+ ?) and the other was 120hp, but looked like an 80hp tractor and quieter to use than a New Holland 110-90. Felt solid and well made,it had a rebuilt engine still with breathing problems when I used it.He own both from new, he didn't keep the larger one to long.(but saying that probably 3 years)The smaller one must have been atleast 4 years if not 5 years.Had 8,000hrs (I think) on the clock when I used it.

Ziko Posted December 22, 2009 Author Share Posted December 22, 2009 Thanks guys, @Fred, you're right, the quality was so good people never bought spare parts or traded their tractor in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fred Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 Don't know why he didn't keep it plus others such as his DB1690 commemorative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
