Lamborghini 4R Tractor-a stunning and rare piece of Lamborghini history | Tyrrell's Classic Workshop

[@tg_ny]

“I have found tractors to be a bit agricultural”. I couldnt stop laughing…..😂

[@john1703]

"Does exactly what it says on the tin."

[@Boric78]

Iain is funny. The lira and later the brake pads comments were very funny. The cars and the history is great, but I enjoy the dry asides as much. In fact the whole test drive was hilarious.

[@jaysteele1031]

At least it has air conditioning...

[@PiDsPagePrototypes]

The delivery of that line,... and the deliberate pause before continuing...

[@TachyonDriver]

The pregnant pause after Iain said that. Superb comic timing!

[@russellbennett8516]

What a classic. The well timed initial comment about the suspension prior to the severe neck jolt amused me greatly. A vehicle you should be proud to own Iain. Thank you for sharing!

[@iain_tyrrell]

Thank you!

[@Dr.Dawson]

Just when you think Ian can’t raise the bar any higher he brings us this beauty. Thanks for sharing Ian. Best garage content on KZbin Period.

[@iain_tyrrell]

Thank you very much!

[@EleanorPeterson]

The pause after the dreadful pun at 5:30 was magnificent. Deadpan delivery, perfect timing. Iain, you should be in panto!😁

[@09juliancarr]

I was waiting for the crickets or tumbleweed….

[@iain_tyrrell]

Thank you!

[@306champion]

YEP, lol.

[@davidhinkson8856]

This is certainly a road test with a difference coming from you! But that is a beautifully restored tractor and an important piece of history as well.

[@stevem7868-y4l]

When i was a kid, i was well into Tractors, i had Tractor wallpaper, and Tractor pajamas, Tractors on my shirts, Tractor stickers, Tractor Toys, i had the LOT, but one day, this all came to a halt, and my love for Tractors ended and i became "an extractor fan"

[@alexandrecouture2462]

oh wow 😂

[@SmallBlogV8]

That joke blows. Well done.

[@stevem7868-y4l]

[@bolkoschuseil7484]

Watching the "road test" I start to wonder, which piece of machinery would NOT create this marvelous smile on your face, Iain! Ah, yes - there was one incident when the rubber disk on the Ferrari broke - but other than that! Thanks for taking us on this journey - as always packed with tech details and emotions!

[@briandurning9211]

It's measured in smiles per mile, and this tractor has oodles. Congrats on the restoration

[@3ducs]

Old tractors are lovely things. I live in an area of New Hampshire, USA, where I see them daily, there is a static Farmall F-20 on steel tires about five miles from me, those things were built for the ages.

[@ronmccullock1407]

What a wonderful video Iain! I am a tractor enthusiast, I worked on a farm 45 years ago driving Ford 4000 tractors, then I got a job on the council on the Parks Department where I drove David Brown tractors and a Leyland 154 tractor. You need to double declutch on those old tractors. If you are not pulling a trailer or an implement you could put it into top gear and pull away. I drove a David Brown tractor in 1984 which had a semi automatic gearbox! I have fully enjoyed your video and in your own words Tickety-Boo!!!!

[@iain_tyrrell]

Thank you!☺️

[@bavondale]

very much enjoyed. beautiful vehicle

[@Thecrazyvaclav]

Loving that Fiat 500, the saab and the couple of Migs outside

[@agnosticChurchworker]

The Fiat looks like a proper weapon. Wonder if it's a customer car, or an employee's project? If the latter, it'd be a neat idea to do a sort of Jay Leno's Garage style video featuring Iain and the owner going over how they built it and why...

[@stephenholland5930]

Look more like Sukhois to me.

[@lutzweinschenk2471]

A nice Bentley at the turning point, too. I looked a second time for the lovely white Saab with the Aero kit.

[@thechod]

This may be the pinnacle of road tests! I really enjoyed it

[@davidmead731]

Fantastic video- another classic tractor fan is born! Italian agriculture recovering after war needed smaller machines for small farm - we had the Little Grey Fergie in the UK. No surprise that are not many larger machines. Italy didn’t want to import foreign made machines - so the incentive to encourage home built tractors. Built to put power on the land and little thought for operator comfort. Compared to today’s machines very primitive but they did the job and far easier than what went before- human/horse labour. When it rained you got wet and when the sun shon your brains were boiled out. Very well engineered machines.

[@isalmankhan1]

Sir those fighter jets in the background, WoW😍😍😍

[@kosmogeorge]

A bit hard damped the device I'm afraid !!! I've rarely been so amused by the way you came out of the workshop grinning from ear to ear! Marvellous. Great job Iain.

[@iain_tyrrell]

Thank you!

[@eric934]

More difficult to get out of than a Countach. Top tractor that! Love it.

[@BlackieWatts]

Sir David Brown's tractors were as iconic as the Ast

[@Cycle.every.day.]

The Silver Lambo coming out of the enclosed trailer looked nice.

[@CarlArwidsson]

Forget the Lamborghini, did you see that white Saab 900 Aero next too the trailer. That’s one heck of a nice car 😍

[@Cycle.every.day.]

@@CarlArwidsson true true,more of my style to to be honest , my comment was bait,it looked staged,it looked like we were meant to see it coming off trailer.

[@GordonWishart]

@Cycle.every.day. I didn't see the silver trailer, although at the beginning of the test run, a lovely little Fiat 500 Bambina in rosè wine looked a treat at the garage entrance.. Is that in for service? Yes, the Saab looked gorgeous, as does the earlier gold or champagne Porsche 911 forward of the tractor on the left.

[@Chiellus11]

@@GordonWishart 9:00

[@forwardsdrawkcab]

Old tractors do look lovely.

[@SVanHutten]

As if it was not enough showcasing the Lambo tractor, @11:25 what seems to be two Sukhois from the -17/-20/-22 family (one still bearing the USSR markings). It looks like Iain´s workshop is located in a sort of vehicle wonderland. BTW, the Lira low exchange rate against USD or Pounds was legendary!!

[@iain_tyrrell]

Thanks!

[@databong]

Bravo for leaving that last shot of the difficult dismount in the edit! For those of us of a certain age who don't get out of low slung cars as quickly as we used to, it's very relatable :)

[@pile333]

Wonderful restoration of the iconic Lamborghini tractor.

[@iain_tyrrell]

Thanks

[@paulboyle6857]

Very tasty! Can't say I'd ever be a total convert but tractors have a certain something.When I was at school in Oxfordshire the local farmer had a Field Marshal which had,I think, a two- stroke diesel which made a very distinctive sound.

[@shankarbalan3813]

Thank you Sir. What a gorgeous tractor. The Gulf Livery is very attractive indeed. So interesting that Lamborghini and Porsche both made Tractors in their early days. It is interesting that the orange and blue was from an earlier era. I love tractors. They represent a different kind of connection with the earth.

[@johnmoruzzi7236]

They all ripped off the 1959 Triumph Bonneville !

[@turbolevo8703]

Watching Tyrell’s workshop and Harry garage on a Sunday after a roast dinner and a large glass of red is becoming an institutional necessity. Don’t ever stop.

So great to see bringing back to life this old Tractors … Porsche also have the Junior Tractor👌 The cherry red Fiat 500 Abrath looks fantastic 😍

[@markhodge7]

Love working on old tractors. Tore apart and rebuilt a 50s Ford 9N with a buddy. Like a huge Meccano set. Big bolts and big threads. Great fun. (No more uniqueness than a hand throttle)

Absolutely lovely to see the old thing booming about, on top of his tractor :) :) Only joking of course Iain, while it might be a bit, ahem, agricultural in comparison to its stablemates, it’s still a beautiful thing.

Great video . . . Iain always liked to plough his own furrow.

[@gerryjamesedwards1227]

Tractors are so evocative, I can see why people are drawn to them. Something about the function far outweighing the form still leads to lovely looking pieces of machinery. Some country parks and publicly accessible farms, where kids can get up close with the animals, have passenger carts that are towed around by tractors. I imagine this gorgeous little gem of a tractor doing something similar. Around Goodwood, perhaps? Who wouldn't want a ride behind that 4R, wherever it was?

[@iangillett2488]

Oh I did chuckle tonight 😅. What a brilliant video. I grew up in the Ferguson and Fordson era. I do love a nice tractor. I can't wait until we tune in to a New Holland Combine Harvester 😂

[@peterre4422]

That’s a nice tractor…. Get it outside and use it properly. I’ve got a Mercedes, couple of Fergys and a Cat, plus implements. Once you get the hang of it you’ll basically change up once into top and let the torque do the rest.

A bit offbeat this time but most intriguing nonetheless. I haven't actually ever seen a Lamborghini tractor in the real. However, we can enjoy one as we are brought along here. Wonderful, and these stories of someone picking up a demand or market from their own passion is always so captivating. Plenty examples to be had of course. Ferruccio's story from his early life to becoming an industrialist is a delight on it own. Thank you so much again Iain for sharing with us.

The first vehicle I drove, and drove year after year as a kid into my teens, was a tractor down here in NZ. A Massey Ferguson 135 it was. From later 60s to mid 70s. It had a hydraulic wooden tray on which I sat many a time with hay bails, stillborn lambs, and doomed sheep. Driving that thing was the best thing ever and I have loved tractors and desired one ever since. Just need a bach and a boat to use it.

[@iain_tyrrell]

Interesting memories- thank you

[@georgebettiol8338]

Your rather 'jolty' ride reminds me of my first drive of an early 1970s Fiat tractor that was fitted with a front-end-loader attachment. The tractor was capable of a heady 15mph at full throttle. At that speed I traversed a railway crossing that effectively ejected me from the sprung seat - only just remaining on the vehicle by vigourously clutching on to the large steering wheel. In motorcycle (Barry Sheene) racer parlance, it was akin to a 'tank slapper' - at which point I came to the conclusion that 10mph on public roads was a sensible upper speed limit for a vehicle that relied soley on tyre deflection as its 'springing' medium.

[@iain_tyrrell]

Yes- strange but true!

[@janromijn1253]

Fantastic machine! Also on tracks like the 3ctl a piece of functional art by the way....

[@norton750commando]

First real machine I ever drove was an Allis-Chalmers tractor on my grandfathers farm, which in size and apparent driving experience appears about the same, at age 13 in 1971. A hand throttle which was a lever on a toothed plate mechanism, and a crash gearbox, which though capable of shifting on the fly, really unpreffered that. I was forcefully told to stop before changing gears.

Brilliant! 👏🏻

@@iain_tyrrell just a tad but it's still a Lambo and so therefore interesting. I'm pretty sure if you got your hose pipe out you could considerably improve the acceleration.
