Apologies Oliveau,your not thick! no commentary on this one but there will be on another upcoming video. All 3 combines were purchased around 5 year old point and then are run for 7-8 years. Much less capital cost than one new one and much greater capacity,mainly serviced in house also. Will have some ownership cost comparisons with single large new machines to put up later in yearSorry, I must be a bit thick, but there's no commentary. So what is the alternative to spending £500k? Are all these combines bought secondhand? Nothing said in the video.
Yes that makes sense - it would be interesting to know the approx purchase price compared with new, and the cost of maintaining them for the 7-8 years use, But to me it makes much more economic sense than buying gleaming new ones.Apologies Oliveau,your not thick! no commentary on this one but there will be on another upcoming video.
