I was out and about yesterday, on my trip I saw 5 tractors, one was bright shiny and new but was owned by a contractor not a farmer. Of the other four, three had all been 'tound the clock' more than once and had registration plates of the form 3 letters + 3 numbers which gives some indication of their age. The final one was about 10 years old.
