What plant it do you live on ? they guy bought the 8s 265hp tractor because it was cheap no other reason & it was 115k , no idea on what spec it was , have seen it in the passing on the road but that is it , He never had a price for a fendt
Did it ever occur to you, that maybe he didn't want a Fendt🤔
 
not very often it happens like the deal I did,no advertisement...a mutual friend put him in touch with me so it all worked well,the chap was pricing a new one but smaller model and lot lesser spec so he seen mine as the better option,I won’t hesitate to sell the next one private again

Was your tractor a high spec one though? So you probably paid stiff money for it from new but it was reflected in it's value when moved on?

You reckon the replacement will be as equally sort after?
 
To me that reads that someone bought an mf for £115k, sometime later @Speedstar priced an mf and fendt and the fendt was cheaper, I've actually heard the same from 2 other sources about mf being more money.

Lets be honest, there have been plenty of posts about how people have had surprising quotes for certain tractors which seem to vary by area and how keen the sellers are to make a deal. I'm sure I have seen people compare like for like quotes with JD vs Fendt and found the Deere a sniff higher in price?
