Gutbrod 4200: water-cooled three-cylinder diesel tractor, 1,004 cc, 14 kW, 855 kg weight and 1,045 mm width, at 2,500 rpm
Gutbrod was a German maker that, after ending car production in the 1950s, switched to garden and compact tractors and also built powered equipment for commercial horticulture. The 4200 was one of the compact three-cylinder models in this range.

The 4200 is powered by a water-cooled three-cylinder diesel engine of 1,004 cc, producing 19 hp, or 14 kW, at 2,500 rpm. At a weight of 855 kg, a length of 2,055 mm and a width of 1,045 mm, it is a light, compact tractor for smaller farms.
A water-cooled three-cylinder diesel engine of around a litre, combined with a comparatively low weight, was built for tillage with lighter implements, mowing work and running a power take-off at standard speed. Compared with air-cooled models, water cooling allowed steadier cooling performance even under prolonged full load, but called for regular checks of coolant level and antifreeze protection in return.
When buying a Gutbrod 4200 secondhand, the condition of the radiator and water pump of the water-cooled engine, and the diesel engine's injection pump, matter most. Also worth checking are the clutch and gearbox for wear, and the frame and sheet-metal parts for rust; spare parts for this Gutbrod series are available through specialist suppliers and collector circles, though radiator parts for the water-cooled version are scarcer than for Gutbrod's air-cooled models.

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.
