The David Brown 885, 995, 1210, 1410, and 1412 tractors were a range of versatile and powerful machines produced by David Brown Tractors in the 1970s and early 1980s. These models were popular choices for farmers and contractors seeking robust and reliable tractors for a wide variety of tasks, from plowing and cultivating to hauling and loader work. They were characterized by their robust construction, powerful engines, and a range of available features, including optional four-wheel drive, power steering, and hydraulic systems. The 885, for example, boasted a Perkins 4.236 diesel engine offering 85 horsepower, while the 1410 and 1412 models received a more powerful Perkins 6.354 engine producing 140 horsepower. These tractors were designed with ease of maintenance in mind, and their robust construction ensured long-lasting performance and durability even in challenging field conditions.

The David Brown 885, 995, 1210, 1410, and 1412 tractors were notable for their spacious and comfortable cabs. These cabs offered excellent visibility for the operator, along with features like heating, ventilation, and optional air conditioning for enhanced comfort during long working hours. While widely appreciated for their performance and reliability, the David Brown tractor series eventually gave way to the broader range of models produced under the SAME Deutz-Fahr brand following the acquisition of David Brown Tractors in 1985. However, the 885, 995, 1210, 1410, and 1412 models continue to hold a special place in the hearts of many farmers and enthusiasts as reliable and dependable tractors that played a significant role in the agricultural landscape of their time.
