New to us delivered this morning. 14yrs old but tidy, seems wrong to put dung in it 😂.

Presume it’s a 10 tonne model? Looks quite shallow on the body height? Maybe just the pic distorting it a bit.
No it is fairly low, 0.8m if i recall with the wooden board 1m. It replaces a 16 year old bunning 75 which had higher sides at 1m without extension but was shorter if i remember correctly. The west was cheaper than the bunning 60 (a 75 was out of my price range) and is 10ton but only time will tell if its any good.

Was that the low lander or the farm star models?

When I got ours 2 years ago I priced low lander models which were out of budget. I think if I remember a farm star 80 was similar to Richard western but I preferred the western so went for it.

Hope it goes well for you! :)

Farmstar, probably will regret not sticking with bunning but the dealer offered us less for our bunning than everybody else, so the swapping price was scary
