Not particularly cheap even at this point
which just confirms what I said elsewhere, a while back ..... no such thing as a bargain any more - especially at auctions -- then add on all the 'add ons' :mad:
in the days when you had to turn up to bid, they were there to be had .. now you're bidding against the world (and his dog) and some ppl have some weird ideas of what's a bargain :unsure:

Absolutely. Online "mystery" bidding has wrecked it imo

Looks a neat setup to drop on and off a trailer when needed

I did know for a load of those tanks, real cheap, on skids, if one wanted to build a unit, assuming you could trip over a decent pump at the right price

A 4wd MF135 - something's not quite right

I missed the last part of the description - " 1000 Boxed Models. "
They did make a full size 4wd MF135 I thought ? Think it was an aftermarket conversion / collab though? Rare.
Dad’s Tafe 45 is basically a MF135. Can’t fault it. Just hit 5 years old 1100 hours and only issue has been the tank strainer due to fuel hygiene. Be nice if it was hydrostatic though 😂.
I fully plan to inherit this and have it outlive me as well.

A local dairy farm has what seems like dozens of these. Stil some Massey 135's which I think are mostly dead and then TAFE 135's.
The absolute state of them is completely and utterly believable to anyone that has been near a dairy farm. Huge farm, huge amount of cows loads of machinery that noone really knows how to drive or look after.
