My 2 cents... It all depends on what you're planning to use the tractor for. I have no experience with a 560, but from the other posts, it sounds like a heavier-duty tractor with more power. If the M won't do what you want it to do, it doesn't matter how historical it is. On the other hand, I also respect the thought that the 560 could turn into a money pit. If you want a tractor as a hobby, the M is definitely the way to go. It took me 2 minutes to fall in love with my M. Every time I work on her, I feel better. If you want a working tractor and the M will do the job, stick with the M. Besides, she sounds like a real honey. If the M will do what you want, sell the 560 and keep the M. If the M won't do what you want, make the tough call to fix the 560 or to sell them both and get something that will do what you want done.
