Midlands area.

Have never heard of a tractor to the reception, seams to a trend in uk and us

I have seen it on a few of the programmes, sure ye can have whatever you want.

Sorry I am down the other side, I was going to suggest maybe checking out if there were any festivals on car ones that is or steam ones in the area and approaching someone there. That or you could ask in the motoring forum here to see if someone could suggest a place... I am sure they would be able to help you out...

Keep an eye out for tractor runs, they usually start about now.

Get chatting to these guys.

Doh that's what I was trying to say haha... You could email those chaps too, they are very nice I am sure they could give you a list of when the shows where coming up. or I am a member I could see if I can get you the list

That's the list of runs coming up in May and June. Might be worthwhile popping along and having a conversation. They may know someone who knows someone kinda thing (if there isn't that particular tractor on the run)

Has anyone had experience of hiring for a main dealer?

Milly33

No sorry not for a tractor anywho... Do you mean main dealer as in a main dealer who sells the tractors or a rental place

Yes main dealer that sells them, that might rent it for the day.

Really need some guidance if anyone knows anything, please. Case 370 cvx or a bit smaller, would like one around 200Hp

Sure just call in and ask they will either tell you yes or no. You will never know unless you ask, and like that contacting the Irish Vintage forum as said or going onto the tractor forum here someone is bound to know more..

I was asked to do a wedding with mine car and it was like this the dad went to show, my dad had taken my car there while I was away and he asked him. Wall wedding car sorted.

Err, we guided you to the tractor people. If anyone can point you in right direction it's them. Give the even planners a call if you don't want to visit a run.

Thanks very much for all your help

Are you working a 6m drill or a 3000 gallon tanker that you need a 200hp tractor?

The tractor isn't wanted for work, just for a drive to hotel reception on wedding day for fun and photos really. Just something different

The tractor you're looking for isn't a vinatge type one, it's a big modern tractor. I'd say put a post in the Farming section here on boards. Or contact the Macra na Feirme club nearest where you live and ask if anyone owns one or knows someone that owns one and would be willing to let you rent it/borrow it for an hour that day. Or do you know any local farmers? I assume you have some connection to farming already if you want a tractor as your wedding transport, so use all your connections to put the feelers out

Tis more the chaps in the vintage society who have the tractors a lot of them have an interest in them so would more than likely have new ones too... But again like above just ask
