    New / nearly new pickup

    It must have been a good few weeks since we last had a pick up thread... 😅 Company vehicle, not farm work, occasional towing and off road but mostly used as a car. Hilux probably top of my list, but even up to 2 years old / up to 20,000 miles they seem to demand such strong money it makes the...

    Amazone amatron 4 guidance question

    Do you have it mounted above the steering wheel? Probably stand more chance that way, keep aiming straight and keep glancing down at it. Tricky to do, but its only guidance, not auto steer?

    Financing a secondhand tractor

    At the moment on a non subsidised deal somewhere in the region of 10% APR? `You'll hear rates of 5-6% "flat rate" banded about but that's just spiel its probably actually more than 10% APR. Still seems expensive when you see banks advertising personal loans up to £25k at 6% APR. 🤷‍♂️

    Nugent flatbed

    Firm I work for have a 16' tri axle since last summer, so far so good. Good strong trailer and nicely finished, tows well. Only criticism is the tie down points in the bed which fold down, if you tie something down and pull a bit sideways on them they must bend a little and they can be hard to...

    Right to refuse after buying tractor or machinery from a dealer if not as described

    A business buying from another business is not a consumer, so not covered by the Consumer Rights Act. Most reputable dealers will self warrant used things for a short period of time, and there will be some come back. But certainly nothing in law, just goods must be as described.

    Fendt going 200hp 4pot?

    Fendt going 200hp 4pot?

    I'd imagine other manufacturers will go the same way before long, and in a few years you won't be able to buy a sub 200 hp tractor with a 6 cylinder engine. Probably down to emissions. Its interesting they've managed to get 209 hp, boosting to 224 hp and 950 Nm between 1200 and 1600 rpm from a...
