    VW kombi van

    The car industry

    What’s peoples opinions on the car industry. I’ve been looking at various vehicles the last couple of weeks and the theme seems to be long supply times holding up new car prices whilst they won’t value trade ins properly. I’m in the market for something and wondering whether to leave it 6 months...

    Haihong ctx250 Chinese made loader

    Has anyone had any experience with these loaders. Thinking of getting one for feeding and yard work. Seem a bit too good to be true. Was quoted roughly 50,000 for a new one. Would be buying a fairly tired jcb for that money. Would have 7,000+

    Fertiliser Spreader- best border spreader

    I am considering swaping my current spreader either for this season or next. We currently have a Kuhn Axix on s6 discs with weighcells. I like the spreader except the occasional fault codes it throws however I find the border spreading poor. We don't have massive fields so having a 6 m bout...

    Iae or Ritchie weigh bars and head

    Which is best, for any particular reason? I've looked at the Ritchie and I'm thinking the I7 is the next one up worth it? Didn't realise iae were different at first. I currently have an iae crush but the next crush will probably be a Ritchie as I think they are a bit stronger.

Lovely bright halogen bulbs and I always make sure to get high quality bright 3000k warm white jobbies At 680 lumens. Sounds fickle I...

    Claas Arion EGR fault

    Hello, I have just bought a Claas Arion 530 and now find that it is throwing fault codes. Usually 7777h which is reduction in fuel pressure. This is then often followed by one or more of these: 7781, 7782, 7786, which are all related to the EGR valve. Also 771Bh tonight which is an air intake...

    Old Arieal Photo but where?? 1950's?

    Found this while clearing out the attic. No idea where or when it was taken, but would guess Shropshire , Cheshire or may be Staffordshire. Guess at 1940-1950s? New portal frame shed, car and Land Rover in yard. Any interest to anyone ?! Would love to find one of that era of our farm
