    Don't mean anything by it just seems strange for a tractor of that size to be only doing 500 hours a year. What's the main difference between range and power command, is it a reliability thing or just the different setup?

    Power command takes more power from the tractor using a bit more diesel , and you don’t have to clutch between ranges , range command is supposed to be more reliable from what I’ve heard

    It needs tyres all round, plus that drawbar has some wear on it. If I was spending that kind of money I'd a least want it to be registered.

    Low hours but it was worked during those hours with alot of roadwork. Also that hitch is an aftermarket addition. Indicating a replacement or a Euro import as does the opening windscreen which is common in continental European.

    Thought that hitch was standard on the tm. If it was an EU import then it may have 3-4 times them hrs.
    Tractors work on the continent

    Maybe that hitch was spec'd first day? The hitches that new holland put on all them TM's were pure scrap.

    Could be, but any tm I've used had the swing down hitch. Which is usually replaced when the original is goosed from haulage.

    Definitely not a factory hitch. They always had the swing back version up until around 2006 or so where you could spec it with the Sauermann option like what's on the current models. Plus, you can see in the 6th pic on it the unpainted part on the pto housing just above it, where the ladder type hitch was from the factory, looks definitely like an EU import anyway. Also unusual for an Irish or U.K. spec of this size to only have 2 spool valves, 4 was nearly the norm on most short wheel base TM models sold in U.K. and Ireland.

    Phoned up about that tractor earlier seems genuine enough no front suspension on it , holding out for one with cab suspension, lot of money for that year and then put 4 new tyres on it , rare enough with only 2 spool valves
