Came across this and though it handled it surprisingly well.
Zetor seem to be starting to up their game!

Looks okay. Was it at the ploughing?
What did you think of them? (try and be subjective, please:whistling:)
They should have an option for front suspension!
I think that particluar model in the video is around £42k, our local dealer has a 135 16v which is the same power, just minus the powershutle and is 7" shorter. Its round the £34k mark, with 3 year warenty, you couldn't really go wrong? Could you?
In fairness you wouldn't except for the stigma attached to them still
We briefly considered a Forterra 9641 but the Bosch hydraulics on that example turned us off and the lack of loader.
Was actually a gutsy performer from the test drive we had.
What didnt you like about the bosch hydraulics? I thought it was very handy and easy to use?
It is I agree but remember I have the Dad factor here :D
Oh I understand now! :D
I thought the manual lift controls were an option, but maybe that was the older ones.

It's all coming out of the woodwork now:D
Wonder what other secrets he is hiding from us eh :D
I am always subjective Larry
Zetor have come on leaps and bound in the last few years IMV.
We have a very active dealer in our area and I suspect he will be pushing these hard too.
They maybe a little basic in some departments compared to others but that is no bad thing.
The only issue is they may price themselves out of their original market??
I'd expect a good service from the new dealer in the county alright, I was told by someone locally who was in pricing one against his 9540 that a new Fronterra 135 is €53k, I think this is expensive for a tractor with no suspension, no power shuttle and I'm not sure about the power shift situation. If they were well priced I'd have one tomorrow.
Well, in my book Crystal owners were always snobs:001_unsure:.
