Hello R Kelly.

How’s the singing these days?
From the moment you turn on the ‘ignition’ :rolleyes: you will notice it quite different from your NH.

I think Claas are not so terrible as people make them out to be.

Strangely enough it’s the JD end that puts me off them.
 
Ive run three in the past and they were all troublesome neighbours still have a 640 and to be fair its been a good tractor and it’s hardly been washed never mind anything else. The arion have a fantastic cab one of the best ive ever been in and very nice to drive

Do not do it!!!
A farmer nearby changed a couple of ts new Holland’s for a couple of Claas tractors over two or three years.
After not a long period of time wished they never had. Had and still have endless problems. But can’t get away from Claas as they keep chucking money at the deals to keep them in there. All fine but it’s all the downtime and hassle, however good the dealer is or isn’t.
