Apologies if this is in the wrong section. I am on the look out for a 4 cylinder Valtra with a loader, 50K and air. N121 or there abouts. Budget is around £35k (possibly a bit optimistic!) Finding lots in recently sold sections of websites but nothing else that fits the bill. I would consider another breed but not finding many other tractors of that size with 50K. Any suggestions of dealers to try?
Many thanks

Deutz k series were geared to 50k, and my k430 certainly has the torque to pull that speed

Maybe not many left that haven't been exported to Europe, and fewer still would have air, but something else to add to the search?

Yes I would have one of them but I just can't see any. John Bowens has one but 40k, no air or front suspension. I would consider an M410 or 420 at the right spec

Saw an M420 profi 50k with air on good tyres and only circa 3000 hours flash up on a price in application advertisement on the farm machine locator website the other day

Only reason I'm telling you this is because the advert disappeared and I'm buggered if I can find it

Hoping you'll find it totally inappropriate for your use, and will then share who's selling it

Then I'll be able to buy it 👍😜🤣

Last time I spoke with Rob at Bownes my old N111 was out on semi long term hire at a local farm. Hell of a tractor that was and they fitted a new loader as I kept my old one here. Will have had new clutch packs fitted I’d guess, really do miss that tractor was a golden girl but couldn’t find the cash to have that and the N174

Them N111 were/ are/ will be the best tractor valtra probably ever made. Reliable as hell, ours is remapped and doubt anything that size will match it. Theres a reason you dont see them 2nd hand. Just wish ours had front suspension.
