Ford 2110 (A) or Leyland 245?
Which should you choose?
On performance, no comparable figure differs by more than its threshold: on this data the machines are level. On features, the Ford 2110 (A) is ahead on top speed and drive.
- The Ford 2110 (A) suits road haulage better on this data: 15% (4.0 km/h / 2.5 mph) more top speed.
Generated by rule set compare@4 from the figures on the side-by-side table, allowed by route “the same stated configuration”. Measured figures are compared only with measured, claimed only with claimed, at the same test condition; differences within each figure’s tolerance are not called.

What does this mean in plain words?
- The Leyland 245 is 43% heavier (715 kg / 1,576 lb) than the Ford 2110 (A) (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The Ford 2110 (A) has 15% more top speed (4.0 km/h / 2.5 mph) than the Leyland 245 (both top speed forward, as stated by the source).
- The Ford 2110 (A) is available with four-wheel drive; the Leyland 245 is two-wheel drive (as stated by the sources).
- The Ford 2110 (A) is newer: production began 10 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- Even on power at the PTO shaft (both power at the PTO, claimed): the difference is under the 10% threshold for claimed figures, too small to call.
- Even on hydraulic flow (both pump flow, as stated by the source): the difference is under the 10% threshold, too small to call.
- Even on forward gears (both forward gears, as stated by the source): the difference is under the 25% threshold, too small to call.
- Even on PTO speeds: the same speeds (540 rpm).
- Not comparable on three-point lift: the 2110 (A): lift 610 mm behind the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Ford 2110”); the 245: lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Leyland 245”) — not the same quantity, basis and condition.
- No figure on record for every machine, so no call on: fuel efficiency at the shaft, drawbar power, maximum permissible mass, a creeper range and PTO independence.
