Leyland / Marshall 302-804

For the year 1981, the Leylands turned yellow. The 262 was replaced by the 602, the 272 by the 702, and the turbocharged 282 by the 802. The corresponding 4-wheel drive models had a model number ending in 4. The 502 equipped with a Perkins 3-cylinder engine and the small tractor 302 were not imported to Finland. The cab in the models brought to Finland was the Sekura Explorer. A more basic QM cab based on the old design was also available. Exterior changes were minimal, but there were more updates in the technology.

The hydraulics now featured a double pump with a capacity of 55 liters per minute, and the hydraulics were powered directly from the engine. Draft control was still in use. The brakes were now oil-immersed.

Marshall bought Leyland's tractor production in 1981, and the brand changed to Marshall at the end of 1982. At the same time, imports to Finland ended. The Marshalls also had XL versions, which included crawler gears (15+5) and a slightly longer wheelbase. The lineup was expanded with the 92-horsepower 904 at the end of 1984. The small 302 was replaced in 1986 by the angular 132. It was essentially an IMT 539 fitted with Marshall fenders and a Duncan cab. It had a 35-horsepower Perkins engine manufactured by IMT.
