Where exactly were they made in the DDR?

I guess like many I was always told Eastern European machines were inferior to the Western counterparts, but watching you tube videos recently all I can say is I’m impressed.

Pity in many respects that  a number of Eastern European tractors are no more!

Are you working on the later version?

Does anyone know of any in the Uk?

From 1990 it was the Landtechnik AG Schönebeck.

From 1993 Landtechnik-Schlüter GmbH and they produced Schlüter Tractors.

From 1999 Doppstadt GmbH Schönebeck, produced the Doppstadt-Trac, based on the MB-Trac.

In 2004 the Doppstadt GmbH Schönebeck was liquidated and the factory demolished.
