2nd hand tractor prices.

[fergie35]

I’m sure they won’t mind the publicity, just come across this on Facebook not in the market (unless we sell our 3 tractors, combine and possibly JCB!).

Is this price for real?! Looks very tidy and well speced but blow me, gobsmacked.

knowing Stuart and Angus it will be kept in mint condition as well.

Fendt doesn't tend to lose money ?

 

[Wreckit Ralf]

A friend has just bought one same spec/hrs with steering for £75k, it may even be this one, I will quiz him some more when I next chat to him. He was quoted £134k new I believe.

That's a great deal if it's for a 724! Seeing used 716/718's around the £70-80K mark.

No, they only get written off in accidents

They go well on rails, but dont corner like a train.

that is so wrong and a corruption of the saying,
it should be pulls like a train and corners as if on rails

 

[Grouse]

Actually thinking about it - that is why they are so expensive secondhand - not many make it to the used market as so many have been written off - thus keeping the s/h market prices higher.

Probably best avoided as they keep crashing

i had a green tractor on the main east coast line today, i meant to take a pic

Saw a 2015 724 with just over 4000hrs at 85k

Yes he said it was a 7 something, didn't take a lot of notice to be fair!!

I can see why someone farming 1k plus acres might need a top of the line machine, but if you are farming circa 400 you can mange with something like a 6910.

75k to 80k more like its value

But they go like stream train on 29 mpg

 

[farmerbill]

Because it’s advertised for 90 grand doesn’t mean it’s worth 90 grand! It’s advertised for that most probably because he didn’t like the price his dealer offered him as part x so is having a punt.

I could advertise my 390 for £50k, it doesn’t mean that’s what it’s worth, it’s worth exactly what someone is willing pay for it.

Top book when your buying.
Bottom book when your selling.
Should know by now ?

But that tractor could had hard life

 

[Goweresque]

At what point does some enterprising person decide to build a factory in Eastern Europe and say to people, give us your old tractor and £50k (for example) and we'll make it like new? What is the new price (and refurb price) that makes such a proposition viable?

 

[Ali_Maxxum]

But that tractor could had hard life

Luck of the draw init. Tractor with only 100hrs on it could have had 100hrs from hell. With those hours at that age chances are its been dealer serviced and looked after.
