Claas have warehouses chock full of lexions they bought back at silly money and couldnt shift
A lot were coming back off lease last year. They get brought in to the depots then in the case of Claas Eastern shipped up to Wilberfoss and moved on from there. I presume they are tidied up for sale then sold off. My son was saying the better ones for UK the others out the country so I would presume rather than selling them on they've gone through them and are returning them to their previous owners.

I was just wondering how many combines they are likely to be needing.if it was only 50 extra then it would be easy to do when I was looking for a machine over winter every dealer had a selection of lexions

I think Claas Eastern ( sleaford) had an allocation of 25 new machines .

Wilberfoss is a massive shed could be full and you wouldn't know. How many new combines are claas likely to have sold this year?.
Approx 200 new machines sold in UK.
Only able to deliver 90. All old stock is going through the workshop and will be delivered to those without their new machine with full warranty. Some people are getting smaller machines than they have previously used. There are no spare machines to help where disasters happen(fire) and class really need a dry, easy harvest window.

I must add that generally claas are being very good with their after sales service and are pulling out all the stops to provide machines to farmers.
