first machine i spent much time on handy little machine not as capable as a 3c but it was smaller and lighter. basically a 35 front end and 65 gearbox and rear axle i think. i did two weeks snow clearing on it it 1978/9 but i was young and daft and cab happy back then. the manual gearbox and clutch fkd my left knee up for ages swollen like a football and painfull with it.www.facebook.com
Nice wee MF40, basically a MF135 but higher spec.
Them spreaded forks are worth that with out the truck someone was asking for a set of them on here to fit his Telehandler not a big job to glue them to a back plate
My thoughts entirely. If it was closer i'd nab it.Them spreaded forks are worth that with out the truck someone was asking for a set of them on here to fit his Telehandler not a big job to glue them to a back plate![]()
Yea I’ve two setsMy thoughts entirely. If it was closer i'd nab it.
“If”
shame about the single back wheel ...... and the batteries ... terrible on all but concrete/hard stand, but a hell of a lock .... best part of that, as said, is the carriage (and the mast too -- triplex, LH BTLs)

You'd get it on a Ifor Shaun..... probably two loads with the backactor but you'd get away with shifting the traccy loader on a 3.5t flatbed (tight tho).Any idea what this would weigh?
not far from me and now snapped up.
I was curious enough to send the seller a message but it was not me that snapped it up!You'd get it on a Ifor Shaun..... probably two loads with the backactor but you'd get away with shifting the traccy loader on a 3.5t flatbed (tight tho).
I hope you've snapped it.... bloody good buy IMHO. I missed one a couple years back and have been sore eversince.
It's alot. Bins are worth about £500-£1000 each. The money is in the actual gear if it's in good condition.Is it me out of touch and as useful as a truck like that might be. It seems a lot of money for something 27 years old!!
Not horrifically, but yes higher than 15t.high tax group at 18t though isn't it @JD450A ?? ..... tidy for its age .... 'least the cab is or looks to be
Loving the diesel tank. Does that make it ok for using inside
