The 35s were massively popular and sold across the, and the. These were followed by other early models like the (MK1 indirect injection) 65 (MK2 direct injection).

The next big selling model was the MF135, widely popular because of its reliability and power compared with other tractors at the time. This was the first model in the MF 100 series. These included the MF 135, 145, 148, 150, 165, 168, 175, 178, 180, 185 and 188.The same time the MF 100 series came out, the MF 1000 series was introduced.
