Ur disco is nice, but the Field Marshall is really something to behold! I have one in my barn but needs restoration (a lot of restoration) might tackle it over the winter months

It's surprising how many people are Marshall fans. This is our Series 3 and Series 3a arriving at Guernsey's West Show. What trailers do you use for towing as it must be right on the limit for weight?

Marshall's Yard now has an M&S, Laura Ashley, Next, Costa Coffee, Halfords etc.
The only dedications to the heritage is the bits of infrastructure that were too big to change and a daft plastic 'hedge' shaped like one of their iconic tractors stuck on a roundabout.

As far as we are aware they are the only two in the Channel Islands. It's possible of course that there may be some tucked away in a barn somewhere but we certainly haven't been able to find any others.

The Fathers Day event is supposed to be good with a large number of Marshalls attending. I hope to get over there for it one day (in the D4 though, 12 mph on a tractor would be pushing it a bit!).

If you're eagle eyed you can spot a couple of Bigcol66's Marshalls on pages 4 & 5 of the thread in this link.
