    Bailey or Fleming

    Looking at new 16 tonne trailer, priced up Bailey and Fleming, both look good, both around same price and near enough identical specs what’s everyone’s thoughts on which to go for

    Hi, I am after some cade lambs for bottle feeding, we have a farm park which is open to the public and school visits and would like some cade lambs for visitors to feed.

    Slug Pellet trailer

    looks like a good job, will definitely save weight stress on the quad and also frees up the rear rack for other uses. Have you got a fold down ladder to go on for access onto the platform to fill hopper. Could you make it like the old batemans/ agri buggies with demount option so you could slide...

    MF 6490 pto problems

    Had the dealers out again and finally this time they found a fault code when checking the diagnostics, turns out to be the red pto stop button on rear fender as a lot of you mentioned.

    What new 150hp tractor

    yeah probably better comparison as the 6480 is slightly smaller chassis than the 6490 and both the 6480 and deutz 150 are 160hp. Only reason for choosing the 6490 is we have one so know exactly how it compares, going back to the 6480 I would guess the engine isnt as strong as the deutz as our...
