I apologize if I've upset you, but I can't see what I've written that's caused this. The owner at this stage is unknown, so they are somewhat removed from the current situation.

Secondly, running out of oil is a bit of an oversight it must be admitted.

Thirdly, we recently ourselves ran an old tractor we use out of oil, wrecked the crank.

I would not suggest anyone buy this tractor from us (it's not for sale anyway, I try and fix my own mistakes) as the lack of maintenance on the engine is a pretty good indication of how well the rest is looked after.

Please feel free to correct me!

It's also quite possible it has a full dealer service history, and the owner, like I suspect many people, never lifted the bonnet between services.

I read somewhere recently, of some new car the the bonnet couldn't be opened by the owner, dealer only.

Shed class Defenders became quite trendy towards the end.
