Neighbour bought a 130hp kubota in 2015. He has a New holland old roller baler for doing a bit of hay for his sucklers. Its on its knees baling hay, I think they are a bit light and gutless.

I'm going to look at a 2015 fendt 211 on saturday, its been remapped and is putting out 122hp. 1330 hours.
Something wrong if 130hp is struggling with a round baler on hay, 80hp should be more than enough

Its a little big, i'm looking for a compact sized tractor up to 130hp
Not it's not!!!!

I changed my MK3 agrotron 100 loader tractor for a 6150.4 which has 150hp at the shaft.

Same wheelbase and width as the mk3, though on wider tyres. Loader is bigger, but it still goes everywhere on the steading that was originally built for a horse and cart. The 6150.4 is actually more manoeuvrable than my k430 Deutz.

Only issue was the height of some doorways needed altered as the 6150.4 is a fair bit taller than the mk3 which makes it look bigger than it actually is.

If it's the right money, I'd definitely go have a look at it. They are very compact for the hp, yet they're very robustly engineered to cope with the market leading 9t rear lift for example.
