robbo Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 Another one for the Massey fans, Massey Ferguson 175 resin model, very nice indeed https://www.t-toys-nazareth.be/en/a/1to32-toys-farm-farmmodels-with-a-twist/toys-farm-2020-massey-ferguson-175-65-71-1-32/10000140/52020#.XiCbAMj7SUk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B O R Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 For anyone that knows there 100 series mfs. This isn't a 175. Wrong wheels, steeri g link on wrong place. I'm not sure what tractor they have used for reference bit expensive to have to begin putting it right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Worng wheels ?? Seriously Weird as i have a pic of me against a 165 yes but guess what same wheels , we owned it from new , at least 1 other we had on the other farm had the same wheels as well , and i think from memory Johnny mf’s 165 has the same on it , dutch one , ours had a lambourn cab on it. just noticed they have put a steering wheel knob on it as well, nice little touch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B O R Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Yes. 165 wheels. 175 never had those wheels back or front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B O R Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 175s had cast centre's red back and front. There was a late 175S model which this may have been based upon but if that's the case the wheels are right and the tractor wrong for that money the tractor should be at least 90%correct. Let's hope now someone else brings one out too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B O R Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Done a bit of research. Apparently this model is based on the 1968 MF 175S model. The plastic headlights gave it away at first to me ( all early 175 had alloy headlight surrounds) but they are fitted upside down if u look closely, if its a S model then the wheels are indeed correct but I hoped for the early 175 but at least we have a 100 series at last. I've never seen a 175S in UK, but maybe someone does know of one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 loads of the 100 series on those hubs in europe, in various models as well 165 ,175, and 185 a quick google search has thrown them up , so i guess over there it was a common feature, s type or not it seems, would make sense for this to have them given t toys are from belgium as thats where they would have measured up . i doubt many if any 100 series over there would have had the uk pressed wheel hubs , either way jos has gone out on a limb and made a model that people wanted, and it will be euro spec no matter what we wished for as thats his main market . as he saying goes when this keeps getting dragged up ,you dont have to buy it .

B O R Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Googling pics of a thousand mf 100s wud prob throw up about 50 to 100 actual correct tractors. Many parts will have been changed through the years and through refurbishments the rims on the back of this model weren't carried through but instead a different centre was fitted. My below pics show a true 175. Pre S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B O R Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 And here is the S model. Note the wheel centres Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B O R Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 I'm actually glad a 100 has arrived and my point was that if u want a proper early spec 175 a lot of changing things is required, if u want a UK 175s then personally I'd change the back wheels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbo Posted January 18, 2020 Author Share Posted January 18, 2020 The model is actually described by T-Toys as being a MF 175S so it is the later Euro version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dm434 Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Can someone please tell me what the “s” refers to in a 175s , can’t say I’ve ever heard of one , each day is a school day as they say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B O R Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 The S simply denotes a later model as far as I can make out there was also a 165 s but it seems it was destined for the Swedish Market strangely the 175s has a smaller fuel tank capacity than the original 175 but the model had the option of cold climate equipment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justy 46 Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Whip a set off a UH 590 for a swap..job done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B O R Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 I'm hoping someone will make a set a pavt rims so we all can buy them as the 590 rims are close but not identical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 will have to look at that, i know the 1200 tyres do fit the 590’s patv rims, but always assumed the 575 ones were smaller hubs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems the UH 1200 have a deeper dish compared to the 575. Always tought the rims were the same. Surprised that UH never used the same moulds for both!! Considering they are good at that kinda thing.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 was only down to the fact i have tried the 590 tyres on the 1200 hub i knew, so i assumed the new 575 ones were a new cast, hence why i bought two, with the aim of trying to cast some rims i hadn't actually compared them side by side .
