Snap! Ours is 2015 and also washed/waxed regularly. Makes the world of difference. Ok being red, it’s not as true red as when it was new but I think both mine and your old one are a credit to hi spec paint and finish.

Out of interest why the brand change? Better deal?

Price was one. The 3000 hispec was a good bit longer and higher. I think hispec tankers above 2300 are now straight axle?

The rain gun stone trap is easier to clean than the hispec also.

Well this isn't quite new, well 25 years old so far from it but after a bit of searching bought this today. 10500hrs with front suspension in a very straight original condition.

It’s the difference between workers and possers....
Or dairy / arable as I like to think of them

And this is our 6215 (18 plate, 7000 hrs) to restore some dairy farmer kudos

What like is the rear lift will it lift a 6f long plough easy

Not had a plough on it but the way it picks our combi up (which is very heavy!) I wouldn’t think there would be any problems.

It will have been running way to hot with that bag over the rad! No wonder it’s fooked

No, the chuffing bonnet blew off carting maize the other day. Spanners put the bag over it to protect some electrics

I’ve a 512c that I’ve just had a full respray on. We had the power tweaked to match a 515c though. I think you’ll love it.

You employ some dangerous characters!

Did it damage the exhaust system as well? Looks like quite a bit missing off the top!

When we went to look at our 6f at Insch it was on a 6175r and it lifted and turned it over no problem.

The packomats meant to be equivalent of another furrow so would lift 7f.

6175 - 6215 same chassis.

Not as far as I know. Looks complete to me.

I was always told 6175 was gutless, and no point having it just has well have 6195 at least, cos same weight but more power.... Dunno if this is the case tho.

I think we must have his twin brother working with us, similar cans and bottles. Thankfully he is leaving in about a weeks time. Flys off the handle at the least wee thing, always at the Doctors about not putting weight on, and always running to the toilet. All I believe to be related to his excessive consumption of high caffeine energy drinks. He has a girlfriend who drinks the stuff excessively as well and is not uncommon for her to have to go to hospital with heart palpatations/ irregular heartbeat. And yet he maintains that drinking red bull etc is not the problem.

It used to give me palpatations too but i always though it was the jager doing it!

I would think that would be the case, don’t think there’s a massive price difference either.
