What colour can you get for that amount?
I bought a 6195m in 2019. Without front pto, pretty basic traktor. With the small 4240 screen and sf1, it was not very close to 90k

New Holland don't know the model but I wanted a joystick so it wasn't a basic spec. Front pto and links was 8k GPS was 7k.

Second hand prices so don't think new at 75-90k is that far out.

Think my neighbour pays 100k plus for his posh 6155R.

No GPS screen, reciever or front pto and it has 1000 hours on. Must be 120k new fully kitted out

You need a T7.250 to get what i consider a 200 hp tractor. Would you get that for 90k with the spec you mentioned?
A 6215r with direct drive and front link, but no front pto, and sf1 autosteer, was 132k when i asked in 2019.
The 6195m was 98k with command quad, front link, cab suspension, front axle suspension, 4240 screen, autotrack and sf6000 antenna on sf1.

Take it those prices are in euro?

Not sure and once i remembered i'd actually have to drive it to make it pay I abandoned the idea! Saw a big tidy case that I'll probably buy the lads instead to give them a break from the cows. It was about 40k with 3000 hours. Not so bad if it parked up and not used for a bit.

Unfortunately no. I believe £ is the common currency used here, so i post numbers converted to that. It changes over time, so it might have been a different number when i got the quote. This is the quotes from 19 with todays exchange rate.

Wow, it is just not sustainable at those prices. We have the 2009 t6030 basic spec on the diet feeder with 13000hrs thankfully never put a spanner near it. How much is a basic 120hp tractor going to cost when it needs replacing?

How much were you getting per litre in 2009, compared to today?

March 2010 year end. Couldn't get all of 2009 for some reason, average 23.28p. Was getting SCC penalty that year I think.
31p ish now would be 26.5p if direct we were non alligned.

I don’t know - but too much for me to put it on my mixer o_O
There are not sold many new “smaller” tractors in basic spec here. Instead we buy old ones when others want to change theirs for something new. I have a 98 on one mixer and a 92 on the other. They run every day and about 1500 hours per year combined. I buy another 15-20 year old tractor with 5-7.000 hours on when i change. Usually cost about 8-10k to change. And i run them untill it doesn’t make sense to fix them anymore.

Aye

More evidence that I could never be a dairy farmer..... I don't even understand the pricing system 😳😆

2010 was quoted £44.5k for a new Deere 6330 premium with a decent air seat and front suspension, manual spools, skinny tyres.

I bought a higher spec and power Deutz k430 profiline instead, £42000

So like for like, the cost of 120hp tractors has increased by at least 50% in 10 years.

Maybe in another ten years, farmgate prices will have caught up with inflation? 😭

We have one of the new 6110m I really rate it, we had one of the new model 5115r and was a bag of shite so dealer did us a good deal to change it. Saw in the farmers weekly a bit ago there about 80000 outright!
how is the 6M going so far?
i need to just get something ordered. top choice atm is a 6090m powrquad with quicke Q3M loader.
price is scary but cant really find a better option. t6 would be better value but too big for my sheds

Yea we can’t fault it, had no problems whatsoever. We have a 6r as well and I choose the M over that usually as it has better lock and I have all my shuttle buttons on the loader joystick

Any JD men have any advice on powrquad Vs autoquad? I'm leaning towards powrquad as it's cheaper and less to go wrong but am I missing something?
