Replacement for new Holland t7 200

[Ormond]

Looking to replace our 2015 t7 200, looking at £10 per hour to change for a 210 auto command ex demo, 300hrs. Fendt a huge amount more...what’s peoples views on cost to change and other brands I should be considered. Tractor does quite a bit of road work. Thanks

Have you spent much on it in repairs. How many hours on it .

Don't buy a t7 190 we bought one to replace our 2015 t7 200. Definitely go for 210.

The 190 engine lacks torque, just dies when under load.

Have you tried the Fendt on demo or just had a good look at one? What about Valtra if there is a dealer nearby?

Autocommand is the bees knees we replaced a 210 with an autocommand one last year and I cannot fault it. So nice to drive and very intuitive.
Only slight niggle is the whine noise when slowing down can be a bit loud at times but Definately worth the trade off.

Agree with above, I've got on well with the A/C tractors I have driven, just takes a bit of getting the hang of at first. Wouldn't buy a tractor without CVT now. For field work, basically no need to touch the pedals all day.

A little bit, hydraulic pump and drive shaft and casting mainly, tyres about 1800 hrs ago but still have the half worn ones

You know your converted when you jump in another tractor put the shuttle in forward and let your foot off the clutch expecting it to sit idle like A/C but instead you fly forward. Pissing about as well clutching in reverse to hitch things up, it just seems prehistoric.

Yes tried a gen 6 718. Very nice....heating controls way to complicated. Think the 210 would have more power pulling a hill which you’d expect. Price in struggling to come to terms with on the fendt

 

[Ormond]

Having a power command and vario fendt isn’t ideal. You get to leave the seat and it jumps forward

There’s a fendt dealer nearby yes, haven’t heard great things about their vario version though

In other news I'm currently looking for a decent T7 200, in a half arsed way. Ideally needs to be autosteer ready, and front PTO

Mines not auto steer ready, no front pto

Is the new one autosteer?

Ready, no receiver or processor . I’m guessing £7/8k?

I’m not sure to be honest. Was just gauging the deal compared to one I’ve done

Try the Valtra vario. Fendt really is a machine for people who want to optimise everything, this will put some people off I can imagine. Others won't drive anything else. The Valtra cabin is a nice place to spend the day, so much space and you can have the whole arm rest thing like a Fendt but not as complex.

Get one of the newer ones - a T7.210 or 225. I think they are generally 'better' with fewer niggles. Also I could not stand to look at a T7.200 - they are goppingly ugly, with the stretched bonnet.

If it does a lot of roadwork I would avoid autocommand. We have a t7 260 AC.

I don't like it on road. Slowing down, pulling up to junctions etc. Seems to use a lot of power on road too. No idea why. Its great in the field.

Does the demo one still have some warranty?? Because at 10£ per hour I would change it.
