The Case being assembled at Basildon are for the North American market, IIRC they don’t assemble Case there for any other countries including the Uk market which would have seemed logical.Exor own FIAT, Alpha Romeo, Ferrari, CNH Industrial etc etc, HQ'd in the Netherlands with majority shareholders being Italian.
Basildon has twice the capacity of Austria, you will find a lot of Case being assembled in Basildon too. Aren't any tractors nowadays just assembled in their given factory? Many will be buying from all over.
NH may be getting their parts from across Europe, but what's the alternative? Buy a tractor that doesn't get assembled in the UK or have any of its parts or workforce sourced from here?
Basildon assembles T6 and T7 NH’s any other ranges are assembled elsewhere, I presume they only assemble the corresponding Case models too but not sure on that.
