Great looking machine. I ran DX90 and yes it was a 5 cylinder and had outboard rear disc brakes. Never went wrong and was replaced with a DX4.50 which was my first 40k tractor.
Evening Lads, thanks for the very enjoyable tour and capabilities of this great tractor, what made it especially memorable was seeing the dealer logo's from Collings Brothers of Abbottsley, going back a number of years when my Gran was alive and working, she worked a couple of days a week at the house of Mr & Mrs Collings when they were living in Eltisley, not far from George's neck of the woods. STAY SAFE.
What a machine Gents! Looks like you had a lot of fun making this video. Did I hear a bit of group B Audi quattro blow of valve going through that tunnel?? Editing is spot on again👌and I was really impressed by the gas spring rad/intercooler gadget. Keep up the great content 👍
Awesome machine indeed!,Spent a few hours on the smaller green DX’s back in 90s. Agree with mucka would love to drive one for the day just for pleasure!. Great video as usual! 👍
Hi guys, just bought an agritron with front suspension , a workshop guy told me make sure the splined drive shaft is well greased or could seize up and damage gearbox. Avoided buying one before because of high cab and high seating position for steep slope work and shed work. Great video again 👍
I've always held Magirus-Deutz-Fahr high, just as the BM/Volvo/Valmet/Valtra. There is no Make-up over them. They do what you tell them to do. You can always put eyelashes and lipstick on a pig - but it get not better in any way! Very nicely and funny done review guys and thank you Liz for holding the reins short on them!
The deutz engine is very reliable. Bobcat fitted the 2 cylinder 411 and 511 engines in the skid steers in the late 70’s and all the way through the 80’s. You could run them out of oil and seize it, let them cool down and re fill them with oil and it would start and run as if nothing had happened. The oil cooled ones that were fitted in the skid steers in the late 90’s were very poor unfortunately and would eat a head gasket just about every 2000 hours.
Great vid and what a tool, nice to see the old girl out on the road. I always remember being able to leave most other brands behind with the Deutz having the 40k box before most
That older deutz, next to the 7250, in my mind looks like something that is from Eastern Europe. In my mind, just looks so old and soviet, next to the modern machine, we take from granted these days, and don't bat an eye at. Unless we're stuck behind one! Love this channel. You kept quiet about this!
Its a mighty fine tractor that's for sure, even though deutz were never into frills or comfy interiors, they were allways a handsome yoke to look at and listen to, well done it was very well put together lads.
Would love to have one for a week in the summertime to put through the paces. Big tractors are and have always been ugly; TW35, MF3690, John Deere 4755 etc. And modern ones; 7R John Deere, 9 Series Fendt, T8 New Holland. This tractor is fantastic looking and looks like a premium product from outside. The only thing letting it down are the ugly Mitas tyres. Imagine what a lift a set of Michelin, Trelleborg or BKT tyres would give it. Great to see them still using Dromone pick up hitches after all these years. Fantastic looking tractor. Great review boys, this channel's fast becoming a favourite of mine
Love the deutz. I lived in a village one farmer had ford. The other farm t s Steven’s a contractor had the dx 90. I loved watching the German machines. I am from Somerset. So most of the tractors were zetors or Nuffield. Deutz were bees knees. This new tractor the styling looks amazing.
very impressed by the outboard disc brakes i'm sure won't take much to fit them on the rear like a fasttrac and the separate hydraulic tank is a massive plus. only niggle i noticed was losing a spool for the front linkage/pick up hitch?? these days on a machine like that is a no no. the question to George is will a Deutz be replacing the older T7 when the time comes?
Deutz always seemed to be an intelligent choice back in the day, although I remember the parts could be expensive. Might be a good topic for your pod cast - are all modern tractors pretty good these days, or which ones are not worth paying a premium for.
Great vid can’t beat the old Deutz Fahr. They just look the part and preform well. There such an understatement brand everyone just wants Fendt but Fendt use the Deutz engine and exhaust system and properly some other parts
🤣😂 If only ! People have no idea how much it costs us to produce these videos ! Some companies are now realising that and are happy to cover costs and travel etc.
Feck the tractor, just give me launch control 🤣🤣. Always had a soft spot for the old deutz tractors. The German stuff always seemed to be well build and built for work. Operator comfort wasn’t always prioritiesed but was usually above the competition.
Love the new deutz so so much she’s such a nice tractor as good as any Massey new Holland very underrated we have a smaller one and she’s mint like the one ye were in great video 👌
Hi from durham guys👋 great episode today lol could imaging you guys tooling a gti off lights killing it and up to limit you can reach and gti gets pulled for speeding 😳😂 #doublewammy that be so funny #thatguybepissed👍 what a machine mate (""he said it"") lol thanks for your time guys be safe and see you soon 👍👍👋
Great review guys 👍 only experience I ever had with a deutz was back in the black an white days can't remember the model no but it had outboard rear brakes and couldn't keep it in pads 🙄😳
I wonder if they will bring outboard rear brakes on tractors to bring them closer to putting a test on them. They would need to be forward control to have a steering rack though. Good video! 👍
Another Great Video by you two....The last shots as LM hits his head after a small pothole then the Transformer Towering over the little Green Tractor was funny.... Launch Control what ever next 😆 🤣 😂, LM saying not using that as I might meet the hedge😆😆😆👍👍👍👍👍12/10 as normal.
great videos always the deutz warrior is a tasty looking tractor the front face of the tractor reminds me of a transformer best of Germany and over over engineered which is not a bad thing
I stil run a 1980 DX130A as my main tractor it plants with a 12 row and cultivates and sprays and plants wheat and mows stubble and if the MF 4880 goes down it works ground 25 ft field cultivator and ripps up ground in the fall with a 5 shank ripper on 1,500 acres
I drive a 07 Deutz and prefer it to my own newer tractor for some reason.Deutz was popular here in Ireland but has lost dealers because of lac of support from Deutz as we don’t have a Irish importer anymore. When our local dealer changed from Deutz the last few tractors they sold needed transmission work done by the new dealer under warranty in 2019
Seems tractor manufactures are finally catching up with the JCB Fastrac ,by adding features that Fastrac drivers have been used to for over 30 years ,60k + ,proper brakes on all 4 wheels ,larger cabs ,better handing on the road etc .Even down to the airline connector on the side !
Absolutely nailed it again lads and liz loved it. one question are you doing anything smaller than 200hp in that 100 to 180hp one thing I am due a upgrade 😃
Would be interested to know where you look for any spares for the Deutz; my impression is that they are VERY expensive (disclaimer; I own one so may need to use your advice at some time!)
Like many German tractors very well though out machine, I wonder how you'd feel about a 660 claas arion very interesting to see how well the deutz designers have thought it out
Honestly I am CaseIH fan but Deutz Fahr 7250 would be my choice over our 215 Magnum especially 60km, front hitch, trailer braking n our local DF dealership I know well n been look after when we brought second hand McCormick for livestock tractor.
As a MOT tester said "The older stuff there is less to go wrong when there are no electric/electronic in the way". - The modern stuff is fantastic until they start playing up. The older equipment is man and the machine not the man then computer then the machine, a frustrating expensive barrier.
Cracking machine deutz brakes on the argotons were always good were a wee bit heavier on the pedal tho .cool in black .they used to do a metallic darker than there normal green the looked the dogs bollocks . Put her to work it will impress you even more
I had hoped to see that beast attached to a suitable sized plough, only problem with that is that George would probably sell both kidneys and the TW25 in a heart beat.
First thing we look at is the overall set up of the machine and then operator comfort. If someone then thinks it may suit them then it's up to them to arrange a demo and put it to work.
I have a 6185 ttv lovely to drive but nothing works as it should front suspension has never worked properly the cab is the same it blocks up every day the gearbox will not do some jobs it is not as they say completely step less on two of my main jobs it won’t change down quick enough so stalls the engine but the worst thing is the value I paid £97500 for it after six months when I had enough the best bid was £54000 so I had to keep it now coming up three and 5000 hours nobody will bid me on it very sorry for the rant but Deutz unlike my dealer who are brilliant will not even talk to me
