Fendt 800 Vario (since 2000) – the Marktoberdorf large tractors between 700 and 900: 815 to 818, 819 and 820, 822 to 828, TMS, greentec with SCR, Deutz six-cylinders of 6.06 litres, 110 to 205 kW
At Fendt the 800 Vario fills the gap between the 700 Vario and the 900 Vario: the large tractor for arable farms and contractors, which appeared in 2000 as the 815 to 818 Vario and has run in three generations since. The type logic: the 8 stands for the series, the following digits order the power step in ascending order – 815 about 150 hp, 820 about 200 hp, 828 about 280 hp – Vario for the continuously variable transmission Fendt had introduced in the 926 in 1995, TMS for the tractor management system that automatically matches engine and transmission. The first generation 815 to 818 ran until 2005, the second 819 and 820 from 2006 to 2010, the third 822 to 828 from 2010 with the suffix greentec on the 820, which denotes SCR aftertreatment with AdBlue – in 2008 Fendt was the first tractor maker to bring SCR into series production. The engines are Deutz six-cylinders of 6.06 litres in all generations.

The register lists 10 versions with 110 to 205 kW (180 to 280 hp), 5,702 to 6,057 cm³ with six cylinders, torque from 730 to 1,210 Nm at 2,100 rpm, unladen weights from 6,650 to 9,450 kg, gross weights up to 14,000 kg, lengths from 4,700 to 5,274 mm, widths from 2,550 to 2,620 mm and heights from 3,020 to 3,270 mm; the fuel approvals name diesel, RME and AdBlue.
The 828 Vario with 280 hp from six litres is Fendt's example of the high specific output of modern tractor engines; the Vario transmission with clutchless reversing and the suspended cab are the reasons the 800s hold high prices on the used market.
On used tractors, operating hours, the condition of the Vario transmission (oil analysis, behaviour when reversing), engine and aftertreatment on greentec and 822 models, front-axle suspension, hydraulics and the electronics of the Varioterminal cab are what count.

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.
