Did not see this coming

Chandlers are excellent to deal with

Chandlers operate the Massey Parts website and I have always found them first class to deal with.

Interesting that Listers see their future with Kubota?

A real kick in the teeth John Day Engineering, a small family firm, who worked tirelessly building up the Kubota Agricultural brand, then to be shat on like that. We have 8 Kubotas, doubt we'll have another.

Chandlers takes on Lister Wilder area

It has just been announced by AGCO that Chandlers will purchase the Lister Wilder agricultural business, making it the largest AGCO dealer in the UK. Chandlers has five depots dotted across Lincolnshire as well as outlets in Bedfordshire and Leicestershire from where it sells Fendt, Massey...

Likewise I would think browns won’t be happy either since they lost Mf to listers Hence their change to kubota in the first place

It’s slightly worse than that, Browns lose Massey to Bruce Hopkins so they went to Valtra who they lost to Lister Wilder so they then took on Kubota who they will probably lose to wilders

Sad state of affairs but it is screaming for someone to take on case in our area

 

[Magnificent Earwig]

Well Sharmans have got our area now but I have no desire to use them but south of us I’m not too sure what the options are? Hasn’t been anything really since Turneys pack it in

First they need a larger range into higher hp tractors and use some 6 pot engines but I think that may well be close here
