Thats as good an advert for a tractor as any brand could hope for [emoji106]
You obviously like them, but what makes them stand out for you, compared to what you ran before?
We like them,simple as that really.A 5 year warranty helps,too,along with good dealer back up.They,imo, are comfortable to drive and seem to have plenty of power to cope with the tasks we present to them.
We have also dealt with the dealer since they started up and the previous one before.

Is there a hour limit on the 5 year warranty? And I guess you need to have them serviced by main dealer to keep warranty alive?

I'm not sure about the need to have them serviced by a main dealer to keep warranty alive.The warranty is 5 years up to 5000 hours.
Shows ther puttin thier money where thier mouth is. For an operator buyin new and workin it hard then changin this gives total peace of mind. Also for the second hand buyer buyin fresh it also means the tractor isnt bein changed cause its ready to blow

Do you run a mixed farm? In as much as you do all sorts with them or is it just arable work. I’ve always fancied one but my local dealer is not brilliant.

Nice,
but think you need to buy a few more ratchet straps, lol,
Actually, I’ve got loads of racket straps and i did use 4 on this. But I needed to tie the markers up to stop them waving around and I just got carried away with doing it the old way, instead of using any more straps.

Sometimes ropes are much simpler and faster to put on and remove.
I’ll always use ropes to tie a load of straw or hay on a trailer. It’s so much quicker to take off without having to roll up the straps. And it is far easier to throw a rope over a load than an unrolling strap.

The trouble is that not many people know how to do a half hitch knot these days. Sometimes I use two of them to get a 4-1 pull on the rope.
