[QUOTE="traineefarmer, post: 6574490, member: 89974"] You can't really go wrong with those three. Bateman would get my vote as an owner and I will happily verify the excellent service back-up you get from the factory even on a 27 year old 11500 hr machine! Sands and Househam are good machines too and offer similar levels of service. As for the age and hours on the machine, it will all be down to condition how it has been looked after and what you can afford. Spraylines, controls, valves and pumps are mostly simple and cheap to replace. Wheel motors are not and can fail without warning. Whatever your budget is, keep a bit in reserve for near future repairs and give the machine a full fluids and filters service after purchase no matter what the seller says about it's history.
