Massey Ferguson MF 1134 (A) or VALMET 2005-4?

Which should you choose?

On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the Massey Ferguson MF 1134 (A): three-point lift. On features, the VALMET 2005-4 is ahead on forward gears and top speed.

  • The Massey Ferguson MF 1134 (A) suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 14% (680 kg / 1,499 lb) more three-point lift.
  • The VALMET 2005-4 suits road haulage better on this data: 20% (5.0 km/h / 3.1 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.
