There was no British MTA, or BMTA as it would have been called. There was, at first British assembled Ms, then Bitish made Ms (BM) and MD, (BMD) but this used a direct start, indirect injection Diesel, and then the Super BMD and Super BM. For standard tractors there was the Super BW6, and the Super BWD6 , they were replaced by the B450, but there were Farmall B450 AND McCormick B450 variants to replace the M and W series respectfully. The rare one is the Super BW6 with only 275 tractors built. There were also tracklayers, the BTD6 and BTD8 etc with the BTD20 (which used a Rolls - Royce diesel) topping the range.

Don't forget that I.H. also produced tractors in Austrailia like the AW6, as well as in Europe. (France and Germany) Harvesters were a huge company! The 50 or so gold painted Super BMD tractors were to celibrate the Cornination of Her Majesty The Queen in 1953.
