    the 130 would be a later version of a 25 french built tractors.has a 4/107 perkins wouldnt have been their greatest engine, also they have cone brakes dont know how good or bad the brakes are. rarer than a 135 prob more interest in a 135.

    There not actually that similar at all, even though the model numbers are close.

    130 is a much lighter built tractor, made in france.

    As a vintage tractor the 130 is a nice novelty, but if you're planning on doing any work with it you'll be disappointed compared to a 135

    Generally speaking they would be worth less than a 135.

    They have value based on the fact that they are a rare tractor that a collector might like, they are small and light weight too.

    The 135 has a high value based on its popularity, and really the 135 is over valued, when you compare it to similar tractors.

    Market dictates all, the 130 would have a small pool of interested buyers.

    130 looks similar to a 135 in styling but not in substance. Made in France, predominantly for the French market.. Its is a much lighter built tractor, smaller 4 cylinder engine, different transmission and back end with a modest lift capacity. Designed for lighter work than the 135

    133 is the cheaper alternative to a 135, a budget version if you will. Its built with the same components as the 135, but has a de rated engine (37.5 hp not 45hp) and has a single clutch which means no live drive PTO. I think they were also built in France but I'm not sure.
