My utility tractor, a 2002 MF 4345, is getting less useful to me, it is 30K, light and a bit lacking in power for most of my equipment. I am thinking of retiring it to the yard on my Mother's home farm. I am looking to replace it with another low roof tractor, under 2.6M, around 120hp and 40K, it wouldn't be too busy, but just need a handy tractor to work around the yard, load the sower, draw straw, collect seed or fert, roll, fence, etc.
I have had an eye out for a flat roof MF 4cyl, Sisu engined, 56xx or 57xx, a low hrs T3 5455 or even 5450 would probably do the jobs. Unfortunately they are like hen's teeth, MF stopped making flat roof 57xxS. If anyone sees one for sale let me know.
I would consider other makes, but the only one I see offering low roof mid range tractors is Claas Arion, but they have odd weight distribution, 50/50 so not ideal for a loader, has anyone a Claas Arion with a Loader, what do you think of it?
Are there other makes and models I should be considering?
TIA.
