Tractor.

Possibly a little bizarre as a wanted request... However, these are like Hens Teeth as I have been finding out over the past 12 months of my search!! So one last trawl around as I did not want to be spending upwards of £36-40k at my time of life on a bloody tractor...

75-85hp, 4wd, FEL or priced to allow a FEL to be fitted. A/C and the usual bells and whistles wanted required

Low hours, as in sub 1K and preferably sub 500hrs. Dealer or Private.

Not interested in Chinese, Korean/Japanese brands OK or the more Mainstream European brands. Nor Armatrac!!

Based in Telford. PM's please and I will email you back with me details.

Went and looked at a Case JXU 90 with a FEL yesterday. Seemed a neat tractor, albeit bigger than I actually want! The thing is do I spend £28K on a 2nd hand 1800hr machine or find another 10K for a new MCormick/MF Global?

Looked at the Budget Case Farmall and left them... as soon as it was specced up with a/c puh 3 spools etc, the cost really ramped up.

The jxu were always supposed to be a bombproof tractor and 1800 hours is not much Paxtons have a jxu 105 in for 29k. 10 grand is better in your pocket. Personally I'd save the money.

Good to hear about the JXU as I know nowt about them... thank you. Totally agree the money is better in my pocket... I can always buy another motorcycle!!

Or a pole barn for the cattle this winter as Herself reminded me....
