Do vario case tractors come with bar axel, only asking because powershift ones seem to have it,

Never given it a lot of thought, could be right I suppose.

Mine has a bar axle but the 185cvx I have just had on demo did not. My dealer said it is now an option to have fixed rims set to 72 should you never require to move them out, saves about £1000

There was a batch that was bad for fading, including our 12 plate puma, case were replacing them for a while and ours was changed and has kept correct colour this time

How much is the roof top?

Sorry can't help you with price as it was sorted under warranty

Yes, I just thought you might have heard. It would freshin up a lot of tractors that look horrid with the faded roof.

Rattle can £15

And spray it every few weeks

Probably best for you to buy the rattle cans with paint in and not air freshener then!

If you prepped properly including degreasing a rattle can finish will last - I sprayed a Defender wing 7 years ago and it’s no worse than the rest of the paintwork

Would the spray paint stick to plastic? Probably would for a little while.

You use plastic / etch primer

Not saying you should use these - just an example - even Halfords sell it

You can get trim products that will block the action of UV light...

Need to be applied when the thin is clean and unfaded of course.

I have driven a lot of Puma/CVX shaped machines. Always been pleased with how quiet they are, the light and airy cab and cab controls are a delight to use and the gearbox is excellent and I must say I have always found the cab and front axle suspension really comfortable once you have set the seat right.

I love JDs but the cab is always so dull and bloody brown like a little cave!

But how much less will the case be come trade in time?

It doesn’t matter does it as it’s cost less in the first place. The case was actually £20,000 cheaper than a same spec JD. add finance in and over 5 years it’s actually £24,000 less. Will it be worth £24,000 more after 5 years of ownership than the Case? If it is then we’ve still borrowed less money to buy the Case so still better off. If the JD is worth £30,000 more then yes we’ve made a mistake.
