Kubota

[holywell farmer]

The dealership locally in Shrewsbury , seem to be doing well with a Kubota .

Out of interest do kubota make a tele handler ?

 

[Pheasant Surprise]

Take a look at the latest Versatile model..The Nemesis.....suggest it might be the new Kubota 8000 series soon

Hmmm....

Probably would be in Kubota orange livery if they indeed decided to bring them to Europe.

Although they look far and away better in the red/yellow I reckon...

I agree,the original versatile colours

This joint venture is only for the North American market, won’t effect us.

I know it’s not about aesthetics but our( British spec) tractors look so much better!

That looks so disproportionate and fugly it’s unreal. Skinny duals, James Bond front wheel hubs...

Put 800s on the back and600s on the front and she would look the business. Fine roomy cab.

What tractors do Japanese farmers drive?

I just wonder if Versatile aren’t already using the Kubota 7000 series cabs and a large chunk of their parts bin in this new Nemesis range.

From the videos on YouTube the cab looks remarkably Kubota-esqe!

Sounds like the new 8000 series then will effectively be a larger Nemesis with a (probably) Cummins engine - unless Kubota can magic a 6-cylinder from thin air. Probably not. So it will be a hummin Cummins.

Watching the video on Youtube, these look all Kubota design, the only thing Versitile is name and colours.

...i reckon there will be an announcement in the coming months that Kubota have bought/ become a major shareholder in Versitile
