We run a T5060 & a T6.155. I’m not sure what the direct replacement for the 5060 would be these days as I’d say the T5 range is a physically bigger specimen but the T4 range seems a bit tiddly.
Smaller t5.105 etc would be similar. But as usual a little bit taller, wider and more complicated and cramped in the cab. Hope to have a 5060 for at least another 10 years 🤞

Thought it was only fitting to stay the same colour after 24 years of service from the old 135

don’t.....biggest regret selling that machine,replacement isn’t a patch on it

JCB are pretty poor atm. 420 has already had a number of issues- even things that shouldn’t happen like hydraulic connections only hand tight, lock stops breaking, wipers giving up, not to mention thin paintwork

Aye we have an Italian built claas for our scraper, similar type machine. Very average build quality tbh, Claas very unhelpful with one or two issues.
