[QUOTE="Runs Like a Deere, post: 7909009, member: 164647"] Would you get the same figure from JCB, manitou or Merlo dealers? I totally understand your fears but looking at it from bobcats point of view, they give you 0% finance, 5 year warranty and you want a guaranteed buy back figure too, that’s not their business if you want that then lease / hire the machine so you know the total cost over the period? If you commit to buy something then fundamentally the risk of what’s it’s worth second hand lies with the you it’s unfair to expect someone else to foot that risk. The other way to look at it is how much less resale can you afford absorb knowing that you have a five year warranty and will have no unforeseen bills over the period. Every single time we had someone at our old merlo to fix it the bill was always £1k+ So a few of those soon make a risk of lower residuals seem insignificant. just my opinion obviously but something to consider when labour is so expensive these days.
