    Two published sources broadly agree on these year breaks.

    From 1967 the US-built 100 Series share one serial run with a 9A prefix. Before that each model had its own prefix: 641 = 135, 642 = 150, 643 = 165, 644 = 175. UK-built (Coventry) 135s have their own list starting at 101 in 1965. The 135 list is confirmed by anglo-agriparts.com; tractordata's 150, 165 and 175 pages show a slightly different list for 1971 and 1974.
