pistol pete Posted March 21, 2008 Posted March 21, 2008 see if you can get some good john deere shots. just one to look out for Alan smith has sold his big fergie and one of his john deeres and bought a newholland one to look for no idea of size but would think it would be a 190 horse. Quote

Aye will see what is kicking around Peter, Niven should be out and about here soon with the tatties I would think........ I noticed Allan's old John Deere that had the loader on the Agricar website a wee while back, will have to keep my eyes peeled for his new machine. Saw Andrew Phillip's New Holland T6080 at Agricar the other day too........ Quote
