Have seen many messages suggesting that the MINI as a farm tractor, was too small, underpowered and generaly only good for grass curring !!
I purchased a MINI in 1969, used it on the farm for many operations, snow blowing, grinding corn, ploughing small areas, cleaning barns, bush hogging, working in the bush clearing trees & umder brush, moving rocks "BIG ONES" and it is still doing its stuff on my retirement four acres.
It seems to me that those who are unhappy with the little tractor have had no idea how to use it. In the near forty years I have had this tractor I have had, other than regular maintenance, only two break downs 1. Having the injection pump serviced and 2.

To this day the little girl is doing her stuff without complaint and I am sad to find that there have been many unhappy owners. In my book this has and is a great piece of machinery!
