[QUOTE="neilo, post: 4675184, member: 348"] A Moore of the age that you'll get for £3-5K won't be depreciating any more, but it will likely want a bit spent on it. The old ones were simple enough drills so not much to go wrong and parts still readily available. The one I had didn't work very well on heavyish soil in a wet time, just cutting a smear through the clay that closed back up and sealing the seed in. I sold it and bought a tine drill (Simtech) which is far more flexible IMO. You can get a new Simtech Grassfarmer for about £16K IIRC, with £10339 available towards it on the Welsh FBG. It will hold it's value well and do everything you need of it. [USER=104]@le bon paysan[/USER] uses one for all that you want and more IIRC. You would be obliged to keep it for 5 yrs for the grant, but even if you sold it after that it would make far more than the £6k you've laid out for it. [/QUOTE]
