[QUOTE="warksfarmer, post: 8004428, member: 192"] Fag packet figures for discussion purposes but even if it was £20,000 then that’s still £16,000/yr less than purchasing. I had a hire price in August 21 of £17,500/year for 1000 hours/year and the purchase price of said tractor was £147,000. However, it was a few years ago admittedly, we were paying £10,000/year for tractors sold at £130,000 at the time. we’ve also paid £10/clock hour for smaller tractors (150-160hp) for a 10 week hire period. This dropped to £8.50/hour for on farm all year around and 1500 hours per year. This is why we hired between 2006-2014. Then moved to a buy back guaranteed deal 2014-2018. Now complete opposite and would only buy a used tractor already depreciated as hire is now to expensive and new prices are just stupid unless your doing 2000 hours a year to make it stack up and swap every 2-3 years as warranties run out.
