Another thing…how many kilometres had the Collin on the clock? Bear in mind that the total represents on- and off-road use, so a hard life anyway.I’ve no idea, though I expect we will find out in due course. As you suggest, off-road use may give the overall mileage a low figure, whilst disguising the fact that much of that mileage may well have been in low gear on fairly gruelling terrain. On the other hand, a lot of managed woodland on flat landscape has good, firm surfaces - if unmetalled - and would not have over stressed the beast. It’ll be interesting to see if the lorry came with any historical photographs of it at work. That would tell us more!

Well, this 4x2 tractor didn’t had a crane-fitted (just like the 6x4 Eyckmans had) so most probably it had a log-carrier or flat as a trailer.
