GRASSMEN TV - Massey 390T & Deutz AgroPrima 4.51 hauling grass

We take a closer look at the Massey 390T and Deutz AgroPrima 4.51 that we used last summer.
There was a spot of nostalgia for Donkey as this was the very 390T that he drove when he was younger. A Deutz was also the first tractor he sailed in with his father.
At GRASSMEN we've been lucky to have the chance to relive our youth. What are some of the tractors you first drove? Send us any photos you might have and let us know if she's still running today!

390T best Massey ever made

[@owen0379]

When tractors were tractors, no electronic crap to deal with

[@jamesmulligan6756]

I have a 390T The best Tractor I have ever had

[@boonyj]

I learnt to drive on a zetor 5211. Great little tractors. With a 5'6" drum mower on the back she'd never shy away from days mowing. Amazing what you can do with 50hp from the Czech Republic 👍

[@cozzey11]

I can vouch for that, we've got a 5211 and she does a lot more than she should with only 50hp

[@dylantuohy2493]

nice deutz lovely tractor had one myself big fan our your work keep it up

[@eoinscannell5676]

Those two tractors are absolutely smashing tractors fair play grass men

[@canvids1]

Way back in the late 40's as a wee lad in Ontario Canada, I learned to drive on a small 4 cylinder gas Case Tractor. Mostly it was because it was the only one that I could reach the pedals. I enjoy your videos and your bantering.

[@Modlendingen]

I do like these tractors. The Deutz Agroprima was not the most common tractor here in Norway, but the MF 300 series was very popular, and many of those tractors are in daily use even today :) Only drove a 360 and a 375 with the gearshifters between my legs so far, but hoping to get a try on maybe a 399 some day :) And I'm a Fiat guy ;)

[@nalley6815]

Still run a 393. Such a beast of a little guy

[@gerrydays1909]

Drove a 390t when they were new black cab and silver cab and the 399 very reliable and easy on fuel

[@jamesreid7452]

The first tractor I drive was also a 390T and I was 7

[@rickywest57]

Deutz Dx110 two wheel drive loved them back in the day

[@jbagri2305]

[@jacobcondon9739]

Grew up first tractor I drove was a 2294 case ih then it was a gaggle of old school magnums. Got a chance to drive a 2394 my uncle bought for a manure pump tractor hauling silage and man it was nostalgic. Even though like you Gareth I’m a die hard Deere fan myself.

[@Matthew-zj1jx]

[@mark9800]

We would always have been deutz growing up. Still have a D7807C working away at home. Cousin had a DX90, a 6.30 and a 2wd 4.50 moving then to a 4.57. We by chance had a 390T for a bit and it couldn't have been any worse for us. Think it was just a one off. Deutz all the way now though. Would love that 4.51

[@deutz3904]

nice outfit yous have we have a 2wd D7807C and a dx390 which would have been a smaller model to the 4.51. love the oldschool deutz. is your 7807 4 or 2wd?

[@mark9800]

@@deutz3904 it's a 2wd. My da had a new 3.90 priced at the time but went with the D7807C, it was only 4 year old at time and was in great condition. She could do with a bit of TLC at the minute though.

[@amps8lfc]

Great video!! I love the classics. Is that a 2140 at the end of the video? That was the first Deere ma dad had and it's still going strong after 32 years

[@Aaron_N111]

[@mrhorsepower150]

Ed Parry Great series .We used to have a MF 188,plastic cab,oversized tyres.Damn that was an animal of a tractor.The inside of the exhaust collapsed one time lifting silage with a single chop jf and it blew the exhaust 20 feet into the air

[@lsshetland722]

[@edparry8515]

I said there's no arguing the point, perkins power everyday, never a cummins in a tractor! Cummins belong in trucks...
