I bought one new in 1986. Has been a great tractor. Almost nouthing has gone wrong over the years. Last year the radiator cap went bad and had to get another. Dealer could not get one and I got a used one that cost me $35. As with anything old, parts sometimes can be a challenge.
Hi, guess what, we got the same tractor, only I have a MF232 loader with mine. I got mine used with a 1000 hours on it and all the fluids were changed. I love it, and it has been working great! Remember....Crops are green, Tractors are red.......LOL
