Back in 1996, we published our first driving impression of a pre-production Claas Xerion. Exotic back then, a pre-owned Xerion can now make a compelling case for those who know exactly what these tractors are about. But what if you think power first and application second?

Although the Xerion story begins in the late 90s, sales in the UK only really started to gather momentum in around 2004 when Claas introduced the nominal 335hp Xerion 3300, with the 379hp Xerion 3800 that arrived in 2007 going on to be a decent seller that is now in strong demand as a pre-owned buy.
