There cracking value, to be fair if I was in the market for something newer I would have one 👍🏻

Just think of the fuel saving 😂👍🏻

Did you manage to resolve the issue? As with everything you only find out how good some people are when stuff goes wrong 🙁

Exactly you really want a turbo engine to start with there’s a hell of a lot of differences

Same here got an old kubota 4ws beast with 4ft deck cuts amazing ad it’s diesel much cheaper and better than any new domestic machine

I got my mf off him a few years back, honest and was as described prob looked better upon delivery than pics which is rare! and he delivered it as part of deal for no extra and was good with coms etc, no issues I bought blind as he’s miles from me and would do again

I will get a pic, I suspect it’s the seal that’s failed on it own but who knows until I get in there, it’s literally the seal of the driveshaft as it enters the axle not hub side

Sadly I’ve just noticed there is oil weeping out of the rear axle via the drive shaft, anyone any idea on part numbers I imagine there fairly standard it’s a 2006 jcb 526 (rear engined) tia

Tried one before getting a 6430 the gears in the Valtra were stroke I was not impressed,

New toy for me, established livestock men will appreciate they have upgraded the bushing to brass from plastic, from Amazon!

Why the long wait, hell of along time without new, most people get new or stick with used. Looks cracking though 👍🏻

They will theoretically use less fuel as they make more power at a lower rpm, however if you exceed this which is likely in the case listed I.e to get on top of a mower then it’s likely to use more fuel, however on your lighter cuts it may use less. I tuned an old 306td from 92 bhp to 142 all...

Christ that’s a fair range !

Christ that made me laugh! not watched any farming ones in ages, all got a bit droll with exception to Harry’s farm I do like his videos, and CEE

Exactly thats what they tell us, some offer no warranty on older machines you may as well buy at auction

Did you look at a 130? I like the new defender but it’s just not as big as d4 for 4 kids in 7 seat layout

Don’t think the new vs nearly new thing is unique, when my later father ordered his discovery 4 commercial he was offered one in stock with something like 1500 miles for a few k more than a new one, or wait 6 months for his. he just laughed and said I’m happy to wait!

Ha ha, expensive preference, we had a matbro pivort back in the day, think it was a tr250? then went rigid Jcbs since, I honestly don’t miss it one bit plus rigid much lower which is handy in tight sheds and have longer reach, and more stable.

I would go Jcb far more choice to buy and easily available parts, I’ve seen loads of Jcb 526 around 2005 -2008 for around 15k or less

Jesus that’s serious money personally I would much sooner a newer machine
