Lord Ferguson Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 Cor... I would have had that 2640 if it wasn't much more I reckon... Like Sean says.... she looks to be in tip top condition... wrong wheels on the back though (or tyres very worn) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Light Land Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 Look abit small realy don?t they. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 Look abit small realy don´t they. I am sure they are the wrong rims Ol... surely the tyres worn wouldn't make her look so low on the back \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 She do look a minter don't she just? I'm not sure if they are the wrong wheels Marky, unsure myself but some of the ones Howards have in look silly sometimes. . .. Maybe not original spec but something a farmer could choose himself maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Light Land Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 A MF 188 or 595 might fit them wheels beter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe not original spec but something a farmer could choose himself maybe? Ummm I am sure you are right Tris... I'll have a look at the brochure in a minute and check the wheel options... I do know that these 2000 series are supposed to be very poor on the road when towing... the drawbar is so long they tend to bounch along the road... I am told the auto hitch is not available any more to convert them either \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdc Posted October 20, 2006 Author Share Posted October 20, 2006 Was it a collective sale John or just one farm/estate?? A local farm who was being 'swallowed up' by the bigger lads. Cor... I would have had that 2640 if it wasn't much more I reckon... Like Sean says.... she looks to be in tip top condition... wrong wheels on the back though (or tyres very worn) I think the reserve must've been about ?3500.. talking to auctioneer after. It was tidy, clutch was getting low, rears were 16.9 38 iirc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMurF Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 So why do you lot think the wheels are too small They sit on 16.9x38 if I remember mine correctly The 2680's had bigger ones And they do look a little odd when the wheels don't fit the arches that way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparrow legs Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 these pics bring back memories, the good old "german bombers" as we called them as they sounded like the greman planes in the war so im told! my dads first ever brand new tractor was a 2640 2wd A114MRH, till then he always had the pass me downs :'( he loved the old girl, never needed a shower after work as the air con squerted water out of the cab lining most days it was on 16.9r38's because when it was traded for a 3125 they kept the duel rims but fitted 18.4r38 rubbers. I want that 3125 K190OAG, it was exported to france in 1999 :'( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 the familly farms tested one out for ploughing and reconed it was goood for the dosh, but fortunatlly went for the mf1250 artic instead,shame as it looooked great out with the 5 furrow on the back of her,still see a couple round this way although neither have small back wheels like that one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJB1 Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 she's on the right wheels ,marky , but with no tread it can be deceiving , we seem to have had this arguement before with the MF82 that luke posted a while back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 a lot of the ones round here have had bigger rears added, have a pic of one somewhere , they look huge ,does add to a beefy tractor look though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJB1 Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 surprising what a set of oversize tyres do to the looks of a tractor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
