Better getting a reconditioned 165…!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.

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
how the original replacement for the one in the pic even made it out the factory to me was a mystery
is the the one with the twisted chassis?
Now that is an ugly ducklingA 165 wouldn’t be as ugly as thisView attachment 905593
Smart lookin bit of kitThought it was only fitting to stay the same colour after 24 years of service from the old 135
Watched a few old masseys sold today on barbers bid spotter link, crikey they make some money. Im sure a 1972 mf185 made 7kBetter getting a reconditioned 165…!
Very nice. How do you rate it.Bought a petrol ranger earlier in the year and luv it wouldn’t want to be without it now. Is the Kubota engine an improvement.The one on the right arrived earlier in the week.View attachment 905599

Never had 1 before, it’s going well, suspension is unreal, no flies in the eyes and obviously better/safer with the kids. Done 60 odd mile and still over 3/4 of a tank of diesel. Would’ve been through a tank of petrol on the quad in that timeVery nice. How do you rate it.Bought a petrol ranger earlier in the year and luv it wouldn’t want to be without it now.

just had ours 2 weeks ago heading towards 200miles on 1st tankful....very capable and thought out machineNever had 1 before, it’s going well, suspension is unreal, no flies in the eyes and obviously better/safer with the kids.

If that’s on 40 litre, (8.8gal) that’s 22mpg that’s better than my Isuzu!!!just had ours 2 weeks ago heading towards 200miles on 1st tankful....very capable and thought out machine
yes tripped the milometer when filled up got 2 bars left and on 150 miles now. thats on pretty steep ground, some towing and generally not hanging around....very impressed and not missing the petrol jerry cans one bit!If that’s on 40 litre, (8.8gal) that’s 22mpg that’s better than my Isuzu!!!

Yes exactly same bit of towing and running round stock will get around 200mile from tank pulling all time and on road lessens it abit but got some pull not exactly pulling your average quad trailerjust had ours 2 weeks ago heading towards 200miles on 1st tankful....very capable and thought out machine
