[AT] MF 135

[John Maddock]

Yeah, one of Agco's foibles!

Another is rip off pricing in some parts of the world.

Filter for MF148 power steering in Aus. is AUD84.00.  Genuine Agco filter
in UK is AUD9.00!

Similarly, auxilliary pump for MF168 in Aus. is around AUD1900.  Genuine
Agco part in UK is around AUD364.

Sadly, a no-name aux. pump from SSB Tractors has failed after less than
100hrs work - and cost more than the genuine part from the UK!

Go figure!
