"Austin Leyland" is a collective name in the register for tractors attributed to the British Motor Corporation and the later British Leyland group, built at the Bathgate plant in Scotland, where from the 1950s tractors for the British and international market were produced under the Austin, Leyland and earlier Nuffield brands; here the types 154, 184 and 302.

The register lists 3 versions with 21 to 37 kW (28 to 50 hp) from Leyland diesel engines.

Austin and Leyland tractors competed in Britain chiefly with Massey Ferguson, Ford and David Brown and were also exported to former Commonwealth countries; after the restructuring of British Leyland, tractor production at Bathgate declined during the 1980s and the plant was eventually closed. The type numbers 154, 184 and 302 order the three models by ascending power class.

When buying used, check clutch and gearbox, rust on wings and body panels, the tightness of the hydraulics, and the cylinder head and injection pump of the Leyland diesel engine; parts are available mainly through specialist British suppliers for classic Austin and Leyland tractors and through the general trade in historic British farm machinery.

With rated outputs from 21 to 37 kW, these Austin Leyland tractors fall within ISO 730 Category I to II for the rear three-point hitch, with a power take-off that in this class typically runs at 540 revolutions per minute.
