Massey Ferguson Platinum Jubilee tractor signals celebration
Massey Ferguson, is celebrating the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee in style with an extra-special tractor livery showcasing the colours of the 70th anniversary’s official emblem.
Clad majestically in a palette of regal purple and metallic platinum, the unique MF 8S tractor will appear at various key events around the country. Its debut outing was the Staffordshire County Show (1-2 June) for the extended Jubilee Bank Holiday Weekend. The tour culminates at the Lord Mayor’s Show in London in November when the tractor will take part in the famous parade alongside the Worshipful Company of Farmers and the National Farmers’ Union as a powerful symbol of British agriculture.
“We are honoured to make our own special salute to the Queen as the first British Monarch to celebrate a Platinum Jubilee after 70 years of service,” comments Lindsay Haddon, Massey Ferguson Advertising and Sales Promotion Manager. “It’s especially exciting as 2022 also marks the 175th anniversary of Massey Ferguson.”
Highlighting this double celebration, the striking Platinum Jubilee MF 8S features examples of MF logos which have appeared over the course of the company’s 175 year history. These nine logos reflect the evolution of the brand identity from the mid-19th century through to the present day, including the very latest version released in November 2021.
The multi-award winning MF 8S tractor is being supplied by South Staffordshire-based KO Machines, local Massey Ferguson dealer for Staffordshire, Shropshire and the West Midlands.
“The tractor looks stunning in its superb livery,” adds John Owen, Dealer Principal of KO Machines. “We are proud to be partnering Massey Ferguson in its Platinum Jubilee celebrations and look forward to taking the tractor out on the road.”
