Lord Ferguson Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 :D - thanks Paul... I think they got my best side :D I can't begin to tell you how chuffed I am to have made it into an MF brochure... on and off, MF brochures have been my life since the age of 7 or so - I never thought I'd ever feature in one that's for sure. Thye must have taken 100 photographs on that day I reckon... I was freezing cold and the wind was blowing a gale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rorsday Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 I just hope it wasn't the one of you lying naked on a straw bale with a Triple Triangle badge (very small) carefully positioned to obscure your private parts. AGCO's photographer showed me that one about three months ago and to be honest I still have the nervous twitch that it gave me when I first saw it.

Lord Ferguson Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 :D .. Oh dear oh dear No need for the (very small) bit though Mr D :'( Just imagine how much that brochure will be worth in years to come.. 10 years down the line you'll see it on eBay for loooooooads of money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FordTractorCrazy Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 OMG.. what an honour to actually make it into a MF brochure as a MF nutcase like you the MF 5400 must be selling extremely poor to take such a gamble and place the ugliest man with the tractor. The tractor will automatically look 100% better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james f Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 "Powerful hydraulics Mark Channell, Agricultural Contractor, Cambridge, UK “An important role for our MF 5480 is powering a hydraulically-driven waste baler. We specified Closed Centre Load Sensing hydraulics with 110l/min flow, which has improved cycle times considerably – we have gone from 35 minutes per bale to as little as 20 minutes†comments Mark. “The generous hydraulic capacity has also speeded cycle times with our MF 955 loader, which is used for tasks such as moving topsoil as well as in the waste recycling operation, and when working around the confines of the yard, the tractor is also highly manoeuvrable.†“This tractor ticks all the boxes – it is exactly what my business needs.†and on fuel economy... “The 145hp MF 5480 is very economical on fuel, at least as good as my previous tractor which was just 90hp. “There is ample power for the job which means the tractor is not working as hard and uses less fuel.†Did you make up all these lies yourself Mark or did Massey do it for you?? ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 All my own work James.. honest gov MF use a marketing company for these quotations... I had a 30/40 minute interview which was recorded... they then picked out the bits they wanted I guess.. but I did say all of the things in my testimonial I can assure you. This all happened a good 3 months ago or more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
