    Hi. I'm looking to buy a Massey Ferguson 1100, the newer looking one. They seem very hard to find. Have they all got turbo's? I know the 1130's, 1150's, and 1155's do. I dont want a turbo, too much trouble. Help would be very much appreciated

    As far as I'm aware, the MF 1100 were never sold new in Ireland or the UK. Their major market in the early 10970's was the US followed by France. I don't think any of the MF 1100 had Turbo's at all. They were 2wd and used quite a lot for loader work - back wheel rims were often fited with weights.

    Are you sure you have quoted the right model?

    1100 is not to common over here, neither is the 1105, as they weren't offered here for sale as new, any of them here are imports or were bought on special order. The 1135 was the tractor that came over to here, and they are a good machine. Never heard that the turbo was a problem on the 1135, and any way a similar engine was used in the likes of the 2640 / 2680 as far as I can see, same block anyway. 1135's are the easiest to come by, but are still rare tractors, then again I know a guy who still uses three of them for silage contracting.

    I just finished restoring an 1135 myself

    the 1100 used a perkins 6354 engine and had about 120ish horsepower at the pto. they we available in turbo form - a T6354. Why do you want this particular tractor? Parts are hard to get, not like filters and stuff, but i wouldn't like to be looking for a manifold.

    During the week I came across a 2640 that was bought for breaking
