Schlüter Super 2000 TVL / E9500TV Fendt john deere zf
Basic information
Description
The Super E9500TV was the export version of the Super 2000 TVL. Its unique 9.5-litre straight- eight Schlüter SDMT 110 W8 engine produces 200hp and drives a ZF transmission and rear axle assembly which provides 12 forward and 5 reverse speeds. This was a low production-volume model. Just 124 were made of this particular variant and just over 300 of all versions were made over a 10 year period. The export model is a particularly rare machine.
This is an original Uk example imported by Reco-Schlütrac and supplied by Peacock & Binnington's Laceby depot to Sir Richard Sutton's Settled Estates at Stainton-Le-Vale, near Market Rasen, in Lincolnshire where it spent 15 years. It later passed through second-hand dealer J. Brock & Sons twice. In 2010 it was purchased by Oliver Walston of Thriplow Farms in Cambridgeshire, who had operated Schlüters back in the day.
The current owner acquired it from Thriplow Farms in June 2022 in non-running condition and in need of cosmetic TLC. Work carried out has included fitting a new crankshaft damper, resealing the fluid clutch, refurbishing the rear lift rams, fabricating new rear mudguards and repairing the bonnet. This tractor is the last eight-cylinder Schlüter in the UK.
