Thinking of changing a 6 cyl tractor been quoted for a Case cvx 165 with 3 yrs servicing and warranty we already have a cvx 160 and very happy with it great dealer too. But is a 516 worth all the "IT'S A FENDT" hype I know it is a very good tractor but it's more money for less power and lift and seems overly complicated but will it be worth much more in 8/10 years.
I'm not looking for a slanging re makes just first hand experience of a 516 doing arable jobs as went away from 4 cyls to 6cyls and worry it might be a bit light on 5 f auto reset plough 3 m Auto reset Mconnnel Discerator ( bit like a Sumo) 3m lemkin combi with ton of seed 4 m Carrier with levelling paddles etc got plenty of hills so power and stability are important.
Both are comfortable,
