SIMON. Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 Glad you like then..... They are THE tractor range for me... my new tractor has got a 165 back end... even after all this time... that shows just how advanced and durable they were in my book... cue the coments \ :DYes you do... you get to take Ben out for an evening and buy him drinks all night :D Or just shows you how lazy the massey/acco designers are/where ;D ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Udimore Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 Crikey you do go on don't you :D Great detailed review Mark How much would you expect to pay for one of Martyn reeves 165's Are they a limited edition And I guess from your comments they are still being produced If so when was the first model produced Come on I want answers man * Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted September 15, 2007 Author Share Posted September 15, 2007 er... I dunno :D I think Martyn builds a few at a time... I am sure he said he has a few more when I spoke to him... he always seems to have stuff at Spalding when I see him.... just the odd one or two mind you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
