Renault TX: comfort borrowed from the car division, 78 to 135 hp, four- and six-cylinder diesels, the most comfortable Renault series of its era
At the 1981 SIMA show, Renault Agriculture introduced the TX series, carrying comfort features from its in-house car development over to the tractor — an unusual approach at the time that made the TX line Renault's most comfortable series of its era.

The register lists 24 live models, from the 103-12 TX to the 133-14 TX, built between 1981 and 1994. Output ranges from 57.4 to 106.7 kW, or 78 to 135 hp, weight from 3,100 to 6,750 kg, displacement from 4,156 to 6,234 cm3, across four- and six-cylinder engines.
In September 1982, Renault added the TS series, a reduced-specification entry version of the TX with only one door, which further underlined the TX's positioning as the comfort model.
With its broad output range of roughly 80 to 135 hp, the TX series formed the backbone of Renault Agriculture's mid-to-upper power segment for more than a decade.
When buying a used, comfort-oriented TX series, besides clutch, gearbox and hydraulic tightness, the condition of the more elaborate cab specification and suspension matters especially, being more prone to wear than the simpler TS or RS version; rust on cab and mudguards after decades of field use is common too. Parts have run through the Claas parts network since Renault Agriculture's dissolution. PTO and three-point hitch correspond in this power class to ISO 730 Category II to III, at 540 or 1,000 rpm.

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.
