No! Just running an ageing fleet that’s recently been reduced in numbers. So looking at upgrade options for future. Mite do nothing yet and hope the current ones keep going ok. But reliability of one tractor is questionable and has been for some time. Not an issue till a few weeks ago when the older back up tractor was sold for good money. And won’t be replaced.

Is the other tractors issues severe? Can it be cured and made good for sensible money?

And can a model like the one in the link be fitted with a telly?
Sold it now but had a 2010 Puma 155 we brought new, it didn’t have a screen, in 2014 I got hold of a screen and cable, it plugged straight in and worked, I don’t know if the blues are the same, the reds have the same arm rest with or without a screen, not sure this is the same in the blues.

It’s getting some age about it and has always had niggles. Built at a time when QC at Basildon went out the window due to the merger with Case.

Nice tractor and I like it but it’s going to have to work harder now and it just has these little dicky fits usually at the most inconvenient of times that I’m sickening of. We no longer have a plan B to keep us going while it has a lie down and a visit from the tractor therapist either!

I will ask the question if and when I get to the talking to dealers stage.

I hear you. Time stops for nothing. If you have tired of giving it the ol Basil Fawlty treatment it’s time for another. Alternatively someone with some knowledge of what is confounding the old dear may be worth paying for too...

Keep spending on it. But usually something else starts playing up.

There looks to be a few ex hire ones about with spec as this one below.

they don’t have the telly screen in the cab but can anyone tell me if they come with radar ground speed, slip control and an area meter as standard or not?


In response to your question none of that is standard, it is an option when building one with Classic cab (as in that one you linked to) as well as the Sidewinder II cabbed ones with Intelliview monitor as standard they to can be built without Radar. Best speak to russells and find out.

Cheers. I did wonder if that was the case. I will have a chat with a russells rep at some point and see what they say.
