50k electric spools and a new Quicke loader, 92k for autopower needless to say I wasn't tempted in the slightest

Your dealer can’t have been trying to hard, 94k for a 130R ultimate addition with the command arm leather seat etc literally everything bar a front pto and loader

Spoke to our jd dealer at a local show, he suggested changing my 6130 at 2 year old “ as they are very much in demand at the moment” and suggested it would only be about 30k!!!!!!!
Don’t think he appreciated my comments back, best laugh I’ve had for a while:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:
