@carbonfibre farmer

I don't know values but they seem popular with the ploughmen.
This was last weekend.

Bound to be 10 k ?

A mate of mine bought one a couple of years ago, about 4k hrs with a tanco loader, been standing for 2 years, linkages seized etc, needed a bit of paint and tlc to get it tidy, paid about 6.5k. He loves it, I don't as it has the same seating position as a mf 290 with your knees somewhere about your ears !

@Joshie ?

715hrs? People were paying stupid money for low-houred classic tractors not long ago. Could go well at an auction.

 

[carbonfibre farmer]

Big buggeroonys if hrs are genuine.

 

[Boohoo]

Is it worth big money even if the hours are genuine? Is the 5030 a classic? I would've thought most would rather have a 5610.

Or a 4610,horrible things 5030s,and I am a Ford fan.I literally cannot sit in one for long,its like sitting on the floor,the clutch cable will drive you mad,need to cut a hole in the dash console to replace it (often).3cyl back end mated to a4cyl engine good idea which should have worked but it doesn't.

What were the numbers of the blue fiats of the mid 90's, I'm having a mental block? A neighbour bought one as he hoped it would be like our 7740 but smaller. It's still sitting in bits under a sheet in his yard, 15 years after being stripped down.

6635 or something like that I think, very good tractors as far as I'm aware

Is that not just the LP cab? I always thought the deluxe cab was quite nice and as for a 5610 the one we had and every other I know of was a gutless slug of a thing

but not a 7740.

A 7740 isn't very good ,it's awesome

I know no sle gearbox to go wrong. But then no powerstar either

As mentioned, stupid seating position with a funny clutch pedal travel angle. Talking of clutches, they're fun and games to split aswell due to location of top bellhousing bolts, especially for first time as they tighten them on assembly line without a cab. I'm sure they have a 6ft scaffold pole!!!

Had a 5610 with tb turbo and pump screwed it was about 110hp job to keep it cool but went like a train and would pass the 7610 we also had the same time

I don't doubt it .but the standard 5610 was only 72 hp and especially in 4wd was just too heavy for it's power
