I am not familiar with how cold winters are in Sweden.
The 105 is a hydrostatic transmission and as the engine is cranking to start, it is also turning the input to the transmission.
In cold weather, the oil in the transmission thickens and can put an extra drag on the starter/generator, thus sometimes making starting difficult.
So if you will eventually be starting this tractor after it has sat for an extended period in the cold, you may want to consider a battery with high CCA.
Like they say, bigger is better. (but more expensive too)
