Hello everyone from the Netherlands, my name is Timo
I already had an account on the German forum, now that this international forum is online I look here more often
We have an arable farm and we only work with Zetor tractors
We have:
Zetor crystal 8011
Zetor super 5341
Zetor forterra 11441
Zetor forterra 120hsx
Zetor proxima hs100
I have never seen a 120 HSX. In Ireland your options in HSX is either 130 or like mine a 140. I wonder is there much difference between a 120 and a 140?

Yes, I believe that.
It just depends on what the customer wants. Some people are fine with a large Proxima with 100 HP, others wanted a more stable rear axle and more load capacity, etc. but only wanted 100 HP because it was cheaper than 130 or 140 HP.
Other manufacturers do the same, with series that overlap in terms of pure engine power but are built in chassis of different strengths.
And hey... if you wanted a 100 HP tractor with a suspended front axle, then a Forterra 100 HSX was perfect. You didn't get that with the Proxima.
I say that would be the case in Ireland, as there isn't many HSX tractors in the country overall. It's not as if everytime I'm out on the road I meet another HSX.
