JD 7810 = £66,500 + 5% commission

Ah, the magic rag, and they are good to deal with; apparently.
But.
Bought in at £18900, was there buyers commission on top? Add on a bit of haulage, fix the buttons, stand up to it for a month or so, full valet, knock off a few quid to seal a deal, hardly a pathway to easy millions...
And they could sell it and something go wrong with it in its first few weeks of work which they’ll be expected to fix

I just paid 'quite a bit' for a very clean 6310, on the rationale that my local spanner man can fix pretty much anything that goes ping, and if the worse comes to the worse, a factory recon engine would still make it less than half the price of its new equivalent. We'll see.

And I recall startins (?) have had several in from an airport, and asked a pretty stiff price..(knowing they'd be snapped up to go on feeder wagons they reckoned)

I can absolutely see why -if the hours are genuine- the OP tractor would make that money. (how much is a new equivalent?)

You will have to pay "quite a bit" for anything nice and tidy, just how it has always been.
World is full of dreamers hoping tor a farm sale bargain.
Oh I don't know.
the previous 6310 - from another sale- was 70% of the price, and was only 4-5 years old, with 1700 hours!
