That’s tidier than the OP. and from a dealer so will have some element of backup. I’m still of a mind that it’s a sub £9k machine.

Some farmers have sold properties / barns/ ground with or without planning permission for hundreds of thousands or millions and many are not interested in Porsche or Ferrari car’s but would rather a tractor from a certain time in their life that can be taken on a road run or vintage rally or burning some fuel helping a mate do some harvesting or working ground or maybe a ploughing match but it’s what they actually want .
And very often these tractors become their social events with like minded people.

Mostly better tractors than the modern rubbish available today, and no emissions crap. AND a lot less money. Easy to repair as well.

folks are buying these for investment. Some have little to no interest in tractors.

This might be true but then why not get something like around 2004/5 mostly pre egr and certainly pre add blue huge difference is you could get cab suspension front suspension a nice quiet cab and much more comfortable and left hand forward reverser etc. If were talking 20k you would easy find something here.
