Written by Justin Roberts from Agriland
Last Saturday (January 21) saw the clearance sale of Maguire Agri Contracts of Co. Tyrone, a firm that decided to restructure its business making much of the agricultural equipment surplus to requirements.
Around 100 lots of machinery and spares went under the hammer with brisk bidding from both the floor and online; with no reserve all lots went home with a new owner.
Maguire Agri Contracts obviously believed in keeping its fleet up to date and was described as being in excellent condition by the auctioneers. The oldest machine was a 10-year-old JCB loader, the rest were eight years or less.
The later of the two loaders, a JCB 419S with a 50km/h transmission made €114,155
The table below shows the hammer price for tractors and powered machines, VAT, commission or fees are not included.
The auction was held in pounds sterling, the price shown here being Euroauction’s conversion to euro on the day.
