Brings back evocative memories...of a bit of string to hold the throttle open, and always parking it in the shed nose first if it was going to be a cold night, as it wouldnt start if the engine was left out in the cold
it also needed a pint of water most days, it didnt end up in the sump, it just seemed to evaporate it

Dads had a change of heart[emoji19]he's can't make up his mind[emoji23]and this is a green tractor[emoji6]
Aye it was OK not quite as positive as gearsticks between the knees, but not bad
Better for shuttling on the endrigs
It was sold new by an elderly salesman who ticked the wrong gearbox option on the order form
Apparently the first owners weren't too pleased but took it as there was a long wait for another one

I couldn't care as long as it can do me for matches and isn't stupid slow for going to them! Dad can't make up his mind and at the end of the day he's paying so it's his say

It took me all of 5 minutes to decide on buying the 15.
went and viewed it the day before the auction, took it for a half hour road trip round the surrounding villages, mile up the road and thought, yep, this is what i want
Next day, its just a case of raising your hand at the required moment
Was none of this...do i have this one, that one, the other one, or none of them. Decision was made and stuck to
It did help that prior to buying it, i had experience of its counterparts...namely 7810, 3050, 3085. Didnt try the IH as lack of splitter was a no go
Don't touch it,it shouts scam ad to me you will be asked to pay a deposit or for it in full possibly even including delivery but ask them if you can view it wherever it is in the country,bet they won't let you as it will not exist.
One here that I sold in Feb last year,my photo and description,fortunately this time they have not left my phone number in

Ebay is full of scam listings they usually want you to email them so be very careful !!.
Hell of a difference in size and ability between a JD6200 and a 5150,8340 etc.
What you need to do @Joe S is work out exactly what you want the tractor to do Then you know what you need to look for.
I.E.- does it need 40k, Do you need 80, 100 or 120 plus hp. Does it need big hydraulic lift and lots of spools etc. Does it want wide or narrow tyres Will it get a loader fitted and if so has it got a good gearbox layout for a loader tractor.
Once you've established these factors you can then narrow down the search to what meets most or all of your criteria.
Or alternatively just buy a NH TM cos i told you to

Well your the expert you tell him whether it's worth the money and what goes wrong, what to check for and whether it would be a good buy or not!
