Have sold plenty of Jefferson ones over last couple of years without any real issues. We'd sell the basic model at about £380 + VAT currently. Have started to replace the ones in our fabrication workshop with the higher spec ones now and been going well.
And the moment the masses realise its all a load of fantasy money and that the system is insane is probably about the same time as the whole house of cards comes tumbling down!
I might be wrong but I doubt it's a coincidence that the price of almost all inputs and outputs are at all time highs at the same time as many countries have hugely increased the amount of money in the system.
Money largely has to be invested in something rather than floating around. Even if...

Thanks for your insight and knowledge 👍. As I said my knowledge really is more on the new X range produced in Fabbrico. Perhaps I misinterpreted cheaper parts for more cheaply produced parts. Fortunately Argo seem to have learnt from the lessons of the past as we see very few issues...

Rather than me give you reasons or run down the competition why don't you get in touch with your local dealer and book yourself a demo?
Yes they have a great product, good warranty options and excellent finance packages, but nothing I say will convince you without you trying one and that's...
Yes and other manufacturers have much larger buying power. It's very chicken and egg. Need to sell more units to increase buying power but could do with lower prices to help improve market share. Its a slow game but we're making progress 👍. At the end of the day Mccormick as we know it is only...
Yes I think ground was lost as they transitioned from a manufacturer producing at the lower end of the market to one using top quality components and investing heavily in R & D. Also the use of some cheap components to try and gain an edge over Case in the early days has left the perception that...
Correction on the engines used following a message from Mccormick technical. Tier V X2, X3 & X4 are Kohler engines. Tier IV X2 & X3 were Yanmar. Deutz engines in the Orchard and Vineyard models.
