The price on this one is 24 999€, in Sweden (where I live I might have to say too ).
I do belive the price is a bit over the top, the tractor has been for sale a long time now. The loader is a late addition to the tractor, don't know about the front links, I would like to have those.that makes the 4500hr one look like good value! Obviously the loader is worth money too but i dont see front links, i tbought they usually have these?
lovely tractors though.
Pto, 4 Wd, diff engagement and front linkage tooHours would never put me off one of these, just make sure all the electrics work including rear linkage
Front linkage was an option, a genuine linkage would also come with loader brackets built in to its frame.
I kind of agree with you, there is a 2004 Fendt 716 Vario for sale at almost the same price nearby.They might have a great reputation but 25k euros is absurd for a 150 hp tractor and loader getting on 20 years with 13,000 hrs, even with a rebuilt engine.
The way I see it is if you do have a repair bill you have to be prepared for fendt price bills too. ie premium product = premium repair bills if needed. You may find that ok you may not
