Which new SPFH, JD 8100 or Claas 840

[Barleycorn]

With the 130% tax initiative, we are considering buying a new SPFH. The choice at the moment is a JD 8100 or Claas 840.

Just for our own use, about 800 to 1000 acres a year grass and wholecrop.

What's the panel's opinion?

Has to be the Claas , Back up & resale it wins them both

Whichever one the driver/grease gun user/knife changer wants?
Much difference in price, warranty, parts or dealer back up in your area?
Both machines will be fine.

No krone? Are they not a fair amount cheaper? Theres a 530 krone i think it is local to here and it goes extremely well for a smaller harvester
