Just looking at this one it could be European though. My guess is purely going off the colour, it may be a Fendt but usually Fendt have Red wheels. The wheels look new so they could be replacements from another supplier.<br />You are quite right Fergy’s used a Standard engine for a time but still built them at Banner Lane Coventry.AlanRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07180571503542781921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4694505809435969577.post-77555464325338167352015-07-25T23:51:31.586+01:002015-07-25T23:51:31.586+01:00Before Alan gets here I'll tell you now:
