Hi We sold the last of the 825 style new when we started our dealership in about 1993 before they moved up to the newer series with the syncro gearboxes in the U.K in 1996. You either get one thats pretty good or a total P.I.T.A. We moved to Canada in 2000 I still fix a few for guys. Parts are available from either MTZ who are the official factory dealers in North America , or through an online company or 2 that are in the U.S.

we still run our last new 5270 tractor from our farm in England. I've done the motor once due to sleeve o ring failures, the trans twice due to heavy loader work, and front axle repair a few times but we worked it real hard as it was our only tractor here for 14 years and the second tillage tractor before that in the U.K it's got about 9000 hours now. I wouldn't give it to my worst enemy to be honest it's worn out but still works when needed most of the time L.O.L.

You need a guy that understands them to fix some of it and get settings right, some stuff isn't in books and you need the experience. I get some of the last ones sold around here in Canada to fix,from back in 2000-04 when they kinda dropped from the market, guys beat the junk out of them as full time loader tractors. They spent very little in 17 years plus for older ones, but that doesn't mean they didn't have issues that should of been fixed before!. Now I'm at the point I don't want to fix them anymore, as they probably only washed them twice in that time and Fred down the road messed with it without knowing how to fix it a few time to causing more issues.

To be honest the last few I fix should be exported like the rest seem to of been, I'd personally buy and ship them to make sure they went if I could afford to. It's been an experience to write a book about meeting the people and being involved with but it's time to move on for me.
Unless you got a guy can fix it or you can do it your self I'd move on to if you can afford to, you won't really know what you got until you own it but thats like any used tractor to be fair.
Regards Robert
