The steering brakes have a disc setup and not a drum as B100's,it has a foot clutch.They were built in Germany.Slightly lighter than a B100 .This machine looks very tidy from the photos.The bucket looks ok, tracks look a bit too tight, and I would think it would fetch up to around £2500.Put it this way, if I had more room I would be looking at it :thumbup:

A restored 85, when this one was being done, I had a good look at the steering setup.It did not look so robust as the BTD6 / B100 setup. A colectable machine though.I have only seen three on my travels
