Loader Tractor

[TheRock]

Looking for a budget tractor and loader. Need something big enough to handle a Guttler grandmaster on steep land. Would like to spend under 20k. What would you all recommend?

A bank loan

Might find a NH t5050 in that budget

if your wanting a 6cyl can’t go wrong with a old Valmet

Youl get a betr tractor for your money in less common brands as in tractor with less hours on it compared to big tractor manufacturers

What like a Belarus. Probably better looking an older tractor produced by a decent manufacturer with a good local dealer.

Mabe not just as extreme as that but even claas same mccorrmick would be cheaper second hand than jd

Sure would be getting one for 20k? Don't want to spend any more for a tractor on an upland sheep farm.

20k is plenty for bita work round a sheep farm. Lets face it your quad jeep and sheep dog are your most important things needed on a hill farm and buyin big flashy tractor isnt really sensible

Theres plenty on donedeal from 10k up. Worth a wee look

TM 140..

It'll take something like that to handle the Guttler on steep land

8160 nh. Stable and should get a good one sub 18k
Or a tidy 8340 ford.
Case maxxum 5140, should get a very good one with a loader for under 14k. Very very stable tractors.
The older class/ Renault ares always seem a lot of tractor for your money.
Massey Ferguson 5465, you may get an early one with loader for about 20k

A 10 series John Deere I’d be looking for with that kind of money to spend your sire to get descend one

JD 6900/6910, Case 5140/5150. Old tractors but Rock solid, nothing fancy to break (or fix). Problem is finding one for sale...

8340 no use as reverser on right

Paris tractors have a 110-90 with loader

Ah yep never thought of that.
Personally I'd go for a 51 maxxum

it would probably need a clutch every year with a loader on.
