Other than that, you should be fine - just never forget to leave the handbrake on.

I've got a brand new combine harvester, I'll give you the key.

Well a John Deeree wouldn't be much good - he said that he wanted a red one.

nah. Green ones are a bit too "Jack Sugden" for me really.

I've done this for a living:

worked at all ends of the thing (not the one pictured, the one I used was red/pink), I can honestly say that you don't want to be stood where that pile of straw is, unless of course you're name is Smee.

does that help?

What the flip are pics of threshing boxes doing on here? That is so out of left field I dont know where to start! I think maybe a thread on the virtues of self-flagellation! 😈

But for my 2p - Class are pretty good..

Class again, would be green!.....and ita class on fire in the pic!

Going to be a Masssey if your up for red!

The last one i drove was a M plate Massey. Very nice...go for it....****er to park though.

And whats a threshing machine got to do with the price of egg.

And what does that saying actually mean?!

Yr not wrong it is a Claas - doh!

How about a sickle? Seems to work for Mr Death..

I've been promised a go on a Combine Harvester. Saw one in a barn, at a friend's wedding, and fell in love with it.

Apparently, they cost stupid amounts of money.

go get your tissues to the ready terrahawk...

ooooo arrr!

m8 used to work as a agricultral engineer for a large farm equipment dealer, during peak harvest times, themanufacturers would helicopter in spare parts to get the going again! (for warrenty parts I believe)
Obscenely expensive to buy a new one.

I always wanted to have ago in a combine but when I use to work on the council driving a gang mower the other tractor drive who also helped a farmer said i get bored driving a gang mower i'd be suicidal driving a combine.

If you change your mind and want a green one. Claas are a good make.
