One of the earlier ones I see for sale. Seems to be cheap power. What's the main issues? From what I read later ones after 2012 were much improved. Lots of electronics to go wrong but decent main dealer locally. Are they worth a punt in this climate and is anyone buying/selling anything or sitting tight?

I looked into buying a 810/830 and the issues I could find where 4wd packs going due to carrying front weights and also I could be wrong though but head gaskets as it’s a John Deere engine but once changed never a issue again, but apart from that they seem good tractors and like you say cheap horse power.

I’m still toying with the idea of getting one for pulling a trio but with everything going on it’s on the back burner abit.
 
A mate of mine has one and likes it. Not sure of year but must be 10 years old now. The biggest problem was the nut coming off the end of the rear right hand half shaft while corn carting. Made a bit of s as mess both inside and outside of the cab! [emoji23]

Has it got front axle and cab suspension? Claas are cheap second hand but good tractors as above tho only real common issue would be headgasket on jd engine, also if it's hexashift gear box it's just the backend as Dyna 6 MF so very smooth gearbox

Sure I've read claas to a head gasket fix that like you say solves that issue. Someone else might know if that true? Cabs look nice places to be
