    which farmer would buy a petrol engine? Having spent many days on tractors when I was about your age, low end torque ( and tax free diesel) was the way to go... The New Holland site (Benelux version) does not mention any petrol engines. We used to have an Allis Chalmers real petroleum tractor, but that is probably not what you are referring too.

    Petrol tractors have always been available, and so many people have asked why?
