Hey Renze,
The legendary BM-Volvo 470 Bison was rated at 73 hp,and started production in 1959.
The V-BM 700 was rated at 90 hp,and began in 1976. It is a pure V-BM tractor!!

Woodbeef:
Thats quite much for 1959. Ten years later, it wasn't that special anymore.

Hey Woodbeef, there are a lot of BM 470 for sale at a trader in the Netherlands. They have hardly been put to work, they came from the Dutch army.
If you want one, i can give you the adress.

Sorry Woodbeef, i forgot.
Here it is:
Dijkma B.V.
Kievitweg 4-6
5752 PT Deurne (Walsberg)
Tel 0493-319360
fax 0493-320793
I think the international country telephone code is 0031 for the Netherlands.
In the Agri Trader, they show a picture with about 5 BM470's and also a BM 810 and a BM 814.
Also two JD 4240 with air brakes, airco one with 4900 hrs and one with 6100 hrs.
And some 50 to 60 hp Lanz bulldog hotbulb tractors.
Hey, that Eicher 485 EX looks like a case 3200 or 4200 series. I never knew they built motorbikes.

There was a company called sodetrac on the kievitweg in Deurne. Their website was www.sodetrac.nl or www.sodetrac.com, but i never read or hear from that business anymore. They might be taken over, and the new owner doesn't e-market. |

Renze, I am having technical difficulties. I think the problem is located somewhere between my ears.

Kenjar, I was not very clear at that point. Why did i have to pu those links there, if in knew they wouldn't work??
By the way, Eicher tractors still exist in Germany. They only build narrows and compacts, the Indian built tractors are painted German Eicher blue when sold here.
hey, do the Indian Eicher tractors still have an Eicher air cooled engine with individual cooling fan for each cylinder?? they were pretty unique with it.
