WORKING CLASSICS 2: ON THE CASE - Joseph Lewis finds four-wheel drive is needed on the Somerset Levels

摘要

Terry Moore keeps suckler cattle and his heavy work is done with a Landini 4WD tractor, but his 1984 four-wheel drive Case 1494 still serves an important role - mainly hay making with a haybob in the summer and powering a sawbench in the winter. It works between 150 and 200 hours a year. He said: "I understand the previous owner was a farmer who used it to power a road brush to clean a farm lane where the cows were going up and down. This limited use meant it was in relatively good condition for its age and I bought it because I was looking for a fairly compact 4WD tractor to replace my two-wheel drive Massey Ferguson 575.
