robbo Posted April 3 Author Share Posted April 3 A bit of a question for the Massey men out there. This tractor has sat in the corner of a yard for over 10 years and is basically falling to bits where it stands. The paint has faded and more and more rust is appearing as well as the seagull droppings mounting up. I have heard that the 61** series was the worst ever offering from MF and very nearly sent them down but, what could be the matter with it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 the 61’s and 81’s were terrible for the electronics so i was told ,i know my cousins had a 81** (number eludes me) and had nothing but issues with it, always had the dealer round. it was traded as soon as they could when the 82’s came out,polar opposite tractor ,have only just traded that in for a 8s265 recently, they have always had 1 massey even if other brands come and go, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack390 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Don’t see too many of them compared to other Masseys round here- which might say something! But I do know of someone that had a 6190 which was a very good tractor. Used to run double mowers and a reco trailed forager. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
