Getting a wee bit fed up working at our small tractor for around the yard and light field work, so considering going for a new one. Something 50-70hp, 2 wheel drive, basic. Currently have no cab so not too worried. What models are worth pricing? Has anyone priced something similar lately? I'm waiting on a price for NH T4 and Same Argon/Dorado.

Have the T6.145 for contracting and bigger jobs so don't need 100hp, power shuttle or 4wd so no need recommend anything bigger thanks

The T4 and T4S are cracking little tractors for the money IMO. We've sold a few and people seam delighted with them. If you end up with a rollbar, you can get a canopy kit for them which is useful for scraper tractor duties etc...

Spent ages looking for a second hand tractor to put on the scraper. All mainstream makes were either knackered, expensive or both. Ended up buying a new Kubota, everyone thinks it’s great. 50hp 4wd cab with radio and aircon. Don’t forget 5 year warranty
Definitely worth a look

Have a look at a kubota, they’ve got some deals on m4’s which are 66 and 73 go, not 2wd but the lock of one! Cab or Rops really are a good tractor!!!
Thanks for the suggestions, never even thought of Kubota if I'm honest.

Sounds like a job for a 4000/4600 to me. Buy one and fit a new engine would still be cheaper than a new Tafe.
We currently have a 4100, seems like very time we go to use it it breaks. Thinking we may be better buying new and keeping it a long time. Maybe only do 200 hours a year so would like to think it would last 20 years or more
