Calling all tractor enthusiasts, this is the ultimate tractor driving experience! Head to The Adventure Fields in Nottinghamshire and get behind the wheel of both a modern Massey Ferguson and a vintage Ferguson tractor, with an hour driving each. The famous red Massey Ferguson tractors have been a familiar sight on farms since Ferguson merged with Massey-Harris in 1958. But before them came the iconic “Grey Fergusons” affectionately known as the ‘Grey Fergies’ thanks to their distinctive grey paintwork. Built in the 1940s, these pioneering tractors revolutionised farming and quickly became legendary for their reliability and practicality. On this experience, you will get the chance to compare the past and present by driving both a classic Grey Fergie and a modern Massey Ferguson. Inside the modern tractor, you will enjoy a comfortable cab, modern controls and impressive capabilities, including the use of various tractor attachments. Then step back in time as you climb aboard the vintage Ferguson, complete with its exposed controls, metal seat and wonderfully raw driving experience. You will feel every bump, vibration and rumble as you operate this incredible piece of farming history. Will you prefer the charm of the classic Grey Fergie or the power of the modern Massey Ferguson? Either way, this unique tractor driving experience promises plenty of fun for any farming fan.
