I was beginning to doubt it myself, had a look on Google and couldn’t find any link between Claas and CNH, IVECO or any of the other Agnelli controlled corporations, but your nerd friend confirms what I was told, so there you go.
Parts wise, I guess the CNH influence will put a stop to that madness, with Daimler and Deere being cast aside in favour of in house oily bits.
