A 1965 MF135
The Massey Ferguson 135 (MF135) was a tractor produced by Massey Ferguson.
History
The MF135 was the first of the MF100 range, and was a successor to the MF35.[1] Production began in 1964 and ended in 1975, when it was succeeded by the MF235.[2] Several hundred thousand were produced, and along with the sister MF165, was the most popular tractors of the era.[3] The tractor is still sought after in the 21st century in the second-hand market due to demand in developing countries, one of the main reasons being its simple mechanical construction and high reliability, as well as familiarity with the model from farmers' experiences studying at British agricultural colleges.[3]
