What caused cessation of business !? Plenty toys, the 930 looks the part.

Retirement perhaps? I think they bought their tractors new, and don't seem to have replaced any lately, I'll find out the story.
I've seen the 930 pulling one of those Kverneland auto-reset cultivators, quite a sight!
Didn't they write off a SP sprayer in a roadside ditch last year?

They rent tattie ground all over this area, including for ware which they often seem to be lifting in snow! And I wouldn't expect to see a road brush in the sale, the mess they leave behind... They had a 40-acre field last year from the farm where I work, I had the job of trying to plough it this Spring, only got bogged down once!
To answer your question I don't know but I'll find out on Monday, their stuff always looked clean and, well, new, I'm surprised it's as old as 2007
I can't remember seeing them with anything other than Fendts either
