[QUOTE="deleted user 436632456, post: 8165698, member: 151698"] Too many try to work out exact detailed costs and although it is the correct business practise.. it doesn't really work like that in the contracting game. A new T210 or a 165 will cost me approx £1500 per month, Do 2000 hrs = £9 per hour cost Do 3000 hrs = £6 per hour cost All other cost barring fuel and labour are immaterial i.e. Forgot about working out tyres as I will swap before new needed. Will swap again at 3 yrs / 6000hrs, whatever is sooner. No interest in every owning the thing and the next one after that will probably still cost me £1500 per month down the line. But yea £45 an hour minimum but aim for £55. £45 doesn't leave a massive profit margin but I have found that leaving them in the shed to chase the bigger money that never comes doesn't make any profit either. I still find that 3 fivers is better than a tenner. Every tractor out there is more than capable of turning £100,000 per year if you really want it. [/QUOTE]
