Hi, was wondering if there is anyone on here running an Optum and what there opinions are, they seem to be relatively good value secondhand with 2000hrs on them. Main jobs would be power harrowing, mowing and tankering. TIA

I’ve been using one to drill with this year - feels well built, comfortable. Loads of power without being too heavy. Cvt gearbox is good. Can’t help on any negatives as it’s new, nothing’s gone wrong yet.
 
We had one on demo a couple of years ago and we’re impressed. Didn’t do any roadwork with trailers but had it ploughing and subsoiling. Have 2 CVX Pumas and they have both been reliable tractors and easy to operate. As you said they look good value for money.
