Massey Ferguson MF 8220 A (8200 series) – the large arable tractor from the late 1990s: six-cylinder diesel of 5,987 cm³, 155 hp/114.1 kW, 599 Nm and 6,695 kg unladen weight, 1999–2002
Massey Ferguson emerged in 1953 from the merger of Massey-Harris with Harry Ferguson's tractor company and has belonged to the AGCO group since 1994, which assembles the brand's larger ranges at its Beauvais plant in France. The 8200 series formed the brand's upper power segment for large arable tractors at the end of the 1990s.

The MF 8220 A is powered by a six-cylinder diesel engine of 5,987 cm³ displacement, delivering 155 hp or 114.1 kW at a rated speed of 2,200 rpm and providing 599 Nm of torque. At 6,695 kg unladen weight, 5,050 mm length, 2,138 mm width and 3,200 mm height on a 2,838 mm wheelbase, with a design top speed of 40 km/h, it is a heavy, water-cooled tractor for arable farming.
A six-cylinder of nearly 6 litres delivers the smoothness and torque that large trailed tillage implements and heavy trailers demand, setting it clearly apart from the brand's smaller three- and four-cylinder models. At a top speed of 40 km/h the MF 8220 A falls into the German T licence class; a PTO at the standard 1,000 rpm speed is common for implements of this power class.
When buying used, the condition of the turbocharger and injection pump, the tightness of the hydraulics and wear on clutch and transmission matter most for this model year, since the machine was built for continuous use in large-scale arable farming and may have accumulated correspondingly high operating hours. The frame and front axle should be checked for cracking from the high pulling forces.

What to check before buying
- Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
- Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
- Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
- Check front and rear tyre sizes: mismatched pairs strain the drivetrain.
- Shift the gearbox cold and warm — jumps only show up at temperature.
- Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
- Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
