What the TS115 is used for

The TS115 was intended as a flexible tractor for mixed agriculture, where one machine might turn from grassland or loader-support duties to cultivation, drilling and haulage. Synchro Command and Electro Command versions suit differing preferences for transmission operation.

It is now a sensible working classic for carefully chosen farm tasks, smallholdings and road runs to local events. Well-presented examples also make approachable restoration projects for owners seeking a recognisable Basildon-built New Holland.

Why the New Holland TS115 stands out

The TS115 stands out as an especially familiar turn-of-the-century British farm tractor, combining six-cylinder character with a useful everyday size. Its long presence in mixed farming gives it strong recognition among owners and show visitors. Buyers should remember that age-related electrical, hydraulic and transmission-control wear can affect usability and originality.

Buying a used New Holland TS115

Start by assessing the six-cylinder diesel when cold, looking for excessive smoke, poor starting, unusual noise or unsatisfactory oil pressure. Drive the tractor through all Synchro Command or Electro Command functions, checking that changes are positive. Test rear linkage and draft control, brakes and steering, then inspect tyre condition, bonnet, cab panels and corrosion. Check serial and registration details against the claimed identity, and have it inspected where possible. Confirm figures and originality against TractorData.com and club records; values vary by condition, so check current listings rather than a fixed price.
