Worst machine you have or have owned?

My worst machine has to be a New Holland 658 round baler. Had no end of trouble with belts flipping, bearings going and a pickup that seemed to block just for the fun of it. Threatend it with some matches on more than one occasion :laugh:

Sold it against a welger and havn't looked back since :thumbup1:

They are worth a few quid for export tho so not that bad . would be wors if it was a worthles david brown and you where stuck with it
 
NH 819 forager. Bloody thing could really eat grass, but it would eat concaves even faster. Never got a full days work out of it.
 
Said it before and will say it again. Vogel and Noot 4furrow MS850. Pile o shyte! Boards lasted less than 1000 acres twice. Headstock pulled itself apart, turn stips broke off annually. Quick attach bar broke, new beam (old one now gatepost!) Also broke press arm Probably more problems only kept it 5 seasons 2500 acres. Best burying plough I have used but really poorly built.
I pity the fool who bought it at Thainstone!

Cheers BB
