MASSEY FERGUSON 5S 145 - CAN THE RED TRACTOR IMPRESS?

I have a look at the small but mighty MF5S 145. The first Massey i have driven in a long time. Is it any good?

The guys said she was coming up to you after leaving me, Smart tractor and a good price as well.

In my not so humble opinion, your reviews are the best. You focus on what matters. Useabilty and practability. Linkage, stabilizers, etc.

Thank you for doing such a thorough and positive review of our tractor George, more than happy to find an 8S for you when it’s convenient. Andy

I have been a Massey Ferguson fan since I was little. I remember sitting on my dad's old 135.
It was the best feeling in the world😄

This tractor reviewing is very relaxing and interesting to watch!

[JonDingle]

Great review George, especially 40k in reverse! 🤣🤣🤣 I thought you had played the video backwards and at speed until you said it did 40k in reverse.
Looks a great tractor to me.

Nice video once again george, impressive tractor. I remember in the 80s I worked on a 7500 acre estate the biggest tractor at the time we had was a muir hill 121.

Have had a 5450 since 2014 now (110hp, older version), absolutely love it. Hands down best loader tractor i've ever driven, fast hydraulics, GREAT visibility, will be buying another one. Thanks very much George, have been keen to see one of these up close.

We had the predecessor 5610 which is 105hp 3 pot. Damn did it punch way above its weight class. We ploughed with 4f reversible Kuhn, towed a 13, 5ton excavator etc. 4 years and 4500 hours of trouble free driving and it ran on fumes. Only thing i'd want is the Dyna VT transmission. Very user friendly and comfortable for such a small and "cheap" tractor.

This man is brillant so genuine videos are brill

I’m a bit like you George - I’ve never been much of a red tractor fan, but that sure looks like it would do a good all round days work! Things have certainly moved on from the old grey Ferguson days!! Excellent and informative video.

Lovely looking tractor it really is sounds lovely on the road to from your pov

[TucanoOne]

Another Great Vid George 👍
The Farm i Worked on as a Lad😊Used a 2645 110hp from a Contractor To do the Subsoiling !!
Your 2 Tests you have Just Done Prove How Engines and Transmissions/Electronics have Changed What Sort of HP You Need to do the Tougher Jobs using Lighter Tractor using Less Fuel

From What i Can See Its Down to The Finer Details of the Controls etc as both Look Good and Perform Well
You Would need to See what Fuel Burn is on that Same Job And What is The Price of them ? In Same Spec
Dealers etc

I recon it would be a great baling tractor for a contractor.. 145 horse would run most round balers and probably a fair few combi baler wrappers on the flat anyways.. Small and nimble for the tight fields and lanes, The fuel savings would be much better than a bigger 6 cyl too I recon..

Good video George and looks a fair tractor. It would be interesting to hear what Mucka thinks

[declanconway]

Great video again George. Have a great week

[thomassteadman]

[tommyzoo]

amazing to think it has the same HP as the old MF 2725 ! That was a proper old machine, ,, great video thank you

[charleshart]

Excellent review George – certainly appears to be a very good package!!

All the fergies have suspension on the lift arms as well the button next to the draft controls in the middle on the post but it only works when the lift is unlocked and lifted right up and it does make a fair difference on a bumpy road.
