A NH 644 would be ok for your needs, they did,t like short clover to much but baled most other stuff. Just check the state of the belts, thats one of the main issues if there running a different lengths.

Got a NH 658 here for sale, it replaced a 550 so I feel your pain. It’s done 50k bales of which we have put 30k on it in. Had new belts on it 18 months ago. Looking for £3500 but might come down a bit.

The 550 got sold for export, someone gave me £1500 for it, best day ever when it left!!
