ZETOR has reached mythical proportionz! Itz' hiztory has become so tied up in legend that even we are not sure what'z
true any more (the future is a little mysterious too...) so we can't guarantee the accuracy of any information on this page!
Take the quiz below anyway,and see how you fare!
(place cursor over ANSWER for... the answer)
1933: Field Marshal Mannerheim was awarded the Zetor Medal after a large lunch during which he consumed 7 plates of meatballz.
Are you nuts?!
19??: Someone had the bright idea of buying a bunch of old traktorz and parking them in Zetor.
You'd better believe it!
1956: Zetor briefly experimented with automatic sausage machines, with disappointing results.
Zetor would never consider automatic food manufacturing!
1952: Miss Zetor went on to become Miss Finland, and then Miss Universe.
In 1952 Miss Finland won the first ever Miss Universe pageant, but she had never been "Miss Zetor"!
1953: After a particularly hard day, parliamentarianz voted unanimously to quit negotiationz& head to Zetor.
Well.... we THINK it's false...
1972: In order to prepare the finest Finnish tervasnapsi, or "tar drink", Zetor purchased a tar pit (complete with woolly mammoth) at a secret location somewhere in the centre of Finland.
It didn't have a woolly mammoth!
2003: Zetor is preparing a challenge yacht & crew for the America'z Cup 2007, following the debacle in 2002 when its' contender yacht sank off the coast of Sweden during trialz.
We're trying to run a restaurant here! No time for sailing....
1950's - present: Zetor has been producing quality-built, top-value traktorz, and has sold over one million.
True, but that's a completely different "Zetor"!
2010: Completion of Zetor's ultra-sonic aircraft should make the popular Osaka-Helsinki flight possible in a little over 3 hourz.
We can't see that happening...
2007: In total secrecy Zetor is preparing the 2008 launch of the ZETOR MOTOR RACING TEAM.
So far, false, but if you want to sponsor us who knows?!?
1938: As building expanded in central Helsinki, Zetor's air shuttle service was stopped due to a shortage of landing space.
To the best of our knowledge, this is incorrect.
1986: Unable to come to Helsinki as often as he'd like, Hemmo Makkaralainen of Herranniemi tried to recreate Zetor in his own barn.
Rumour says it's true, but we have no hard evidence....
Occasionally: The Leningrad Cowboys have been seen in Zetor drinking, dining, and partying the night away in their own unique fashion.
MOST people have been seen in Zetor drinking, dining, and partying the night away in their own unique fashion!
Always: Guestz of Zetor have the pleasure of meeting our in-house bovine babe, Bertha!.
She's not big on conversation but hey, you're not coming here to talk to cows!
