In 1956, the production of the Ferguson 35 began in Europe. The first models of the 35 featured a 4-cylinder petrol engine manufactured by Standard, with a displacement of 2.2 liters and a power output of 37 hp (30 hp in the petrol version). Shortly thereafter, a 2.3-liter swirl chamber diesel was introduced, with a power output of 37.5 hp. This Standard diesel was mentioned in Finland in some cases as being difficult to start. There were 6 forward gears and 2 reverse gears. Power take-off (PTO) was standard equipment. A dual-clutch was available as an option. At the end of 1957, the brand changed to Massey-Ferguson and the color to red.

In 1959, a 3-cylinder Perkins diesel replaced the poorly regarded Standard engine. The power was now 42 hp. The clutch was self-ventilating, and the fuel tank was larger than before. In the summer of 1962, the 35 X was introduced, with power increased to 45 hp and a locking differential as standard equipment. Hydraulic Multi Power quick-shift became an optional extra.

In 1958, a larger MF 65 was introduced. It had a 3.1-liter Perkins diesel and 50.5 hp. The 65 featured disc brakes. The locking differential was initially an optional extra. The 65 Mark II, introduced in 1961, had a 3.3-liter direct injection diesel with 62 hp. The power take-off transmission was standardized so that 540 rpm was achieved at an engine speed of 1700 rpm.
