any one selling 6290/6480

[dannewhouse]

I'm after above tractor price dependant.

ideally loader but not that bothered.

front axle suspension preferred. as is CCLS and possibly front links. <you cant get everything you want 2nd hand.

probably early 6480 as I would think later ones be out of my price range.

What's your budget?

What's your budget?

a bit variable happens stretch to just over 20, maybe more if it was a later type 6480 but would be looking less for a 6290.

im at a right stalemate could do with adding a tractor so not really trading one in.

3120
6265 + loader.

do I spend 12k on another "old" tractor
20k on basically an 04 6480
30k on a late 6480 with a loader and very near everything I want on.
or do I go mad 45k for a 7618

but I have gone from a manageable expense to ridiculous imo but each "step up" seems a lot more tractor for the difference.

Yes I know exactly what you mean, we've been in just the same situation. Keep looking on kptractors.co.uk they're good for used MF's. How many hours will it do a year and what sort of work?

unknown …
both of mine do around 500 per year.
want it mainly to free 1 up a chance of a breakdown.
drilling leave 62 duelled up, plough with 3120 and combi with new tractor?
if it comes on wide tyres be no use for ploughing which im 50:50 whether it bothers me. if its on narrow ish (18.4) be ok for ploughing and in a few years when 62 is traded get 1 on wides.
probably round bale with it or bale with 31 and haul with it if suspension. leave 62 to rake and wrap/stack.
probably fert with it then leave sprayer on 31 half of year. leave 31 on mixer wagon in winter unless maintenance on it.

 

[dannewhouse]

could do a good few bales as we have had a few round baleing jobs offered. 62 only just man enough for v660 and 31 bit of age <we don't mind doing a day on her though just coz you got to dip a clutch not end of world.

Carrs billington at had quite a few 6480s on their website last time I loooked
The 06 reg 6465 with 7900hrs on is sub 20 grand and my bro in laws old tractor. It's was always a good one. The dampers been done and the fuel pump. It goes bloomin well. A lot of its hours were on a hedgecutter or mower.

Was in their yard last week, that tractor doesn't look like that any more, been stood for years and turning green, being robbed of parts and I very much doubt anyone will buy it any time soon
