Fendt 818 and Vaderstad Rapid (not for dialup!)

Everythings been pretty quiet down here on the few weekends I've been home but this week things have started getting busy, paddocks are being rolled, dung is being flung and they are starting to get out on the land. Fendt has deffinatly taken over, replacing the John Deeres as they wear out, one or two smaller MF and JDs remain for general work it seems.

Spotted this working in a tiny field (great for me with a camera, it would go round every 30 seconds!)

Nice pics Rob, always good with the camera!!! ;D ;D. Soil looks pretty dry down there,  :-\ :-\

Must be a wee wet bit in that field somewhere though.  :D

thats a lovely rig. Ive never had the chance to drive a fendt, certainly is a few around my area though. The 818 is just gorgeous

I got to spend a half hour on a tweaked 714 Vario a couple of years ago. The Vario gearbox is more intuitive than I expected. I had no bother driving it. The other computer functions are a whole different ball game - although you could call up the picture of Mr Fendt's daughter if you knew the right key strokes  ;)

i've not driven any fendts after the 300 & 600 favorite's, back then my regular drive was a 612 which clocked well over 15000 faultless hrs , a bit basic but even back then they were heads above anything i've driven before & since  ;)
