I am looking for a Merlo 32.6 or similar sized compact, but capable telehandler- (no more than around 2m width). Might consider JCB 527-58.
Either way needs to be low hours (<2500), and the younger the better.
If only Merlo hadn't dropped their model of this size!

Merlo tf 33.7 is a similar size. Or next size down p27.6 is bulletproof
Had demo of the 33.7, and though only 4" wider and 4" longer on paper I wasn't prepared to risk scraping the paintwork on one of the tight corners I can get my 26.6 round to clear muck out of a cattle shed. Smaller tyres and less powerful engine in the 27.6 doesn't sell itself to me for pushing silage into a clamp, or loading muck in a field midden.
