This page gathers the tractors of the maker Mehmet Simseker the register could not assign to a named range: the Destan range (08-240 Destan, 3.055 Destan, MS Destan 08-252) alongside the 0.403 S, 240 S, 265, 275, 285, 285 S and 290 types. The brand name and the model designation "Destan" are Turkish. Some of the engines come from the British maker Perkins, widely used among smaller tractor makers worldwide.

The register lists here 10 versions with 37 to 60 kW, or 50 to 80 hp, all with a diesel engine.

Running a named model range (Destan) alongside an ongoing numeric range (240 to 290) in parallel is common among smaller tractor makers that expand their line-up over time without abandoning the older numbering; the 50 to 80 hp power class covers medium-sized farms with typical tasks such as tillage, transport and PTO-driven implements.

On these tractors, the condition of the Perkins engine and the injection system, rust on sheet metal and cab, the function of clutch and gearbox, and the condition of the hydraulics count; parts supply for the Perkins drivetrain is well secured internationally, while for maker-specific body parts it depends on the respective dealer and the local used market.

The name "Destan" means roughly "epic" or "heroic saga" in Turkish. The PTO in this power class runs at a standard 540 revolutions per minute, sufficient for rotary tedders, mowers and smaller trailers on medium-sized farms.
