Just found this one on eBay whilst looking for brochures; never heard of a Poclain "80" other than the LC80 so might be an 85 instead?

Re: The Poclain Thread "Vive le France"!!
Someone got their numbering wrong, if it's an 18 tonner it'll be a 90. The split front screen and pilot controls make it a 90B I believe. Noisy engine, may need a rebuild. IIRC the Deutz's used to blow the head gaskets, shims were fitted on rebuild to alleviate the issue. The Deutz FL5 I had in a Cat 211 had that problem, was quiet as a mouse when it came back!
