You think youve got delivery problems. This New Holland TC40D compact tractor was recently delivered to Skomer Island – a nature reserve off the Pembrokeshire coast – by an ex-Army M2B bridging and ferrying vehicle. With no dealer based on the 413ha (1020-acre) island, the tractor needed to be modified to customer specification pre-voyage. These included fitting a front linkage for pulling in boats, a snorkel exhaust and a link box for carrying gas bottles and visitors luggage.
