We are looking at combines which combine would you say is best option.
Doesn’t seem to be a lot of Money between any of them.
New Holland 8.80 , class 660tt, or the john Deere 670.
We had demos of all three preferred new Holland , however we have great John Deere dealer service and service look after us very welll (tractors) Thoughts please. [emoji106]

I would hazard a guess that the JD might not be as popular second hand and therefore worth less to trade in when the time comes? But if you have a good dealer that's worth a lot. As to the machines themselves I have nothing to add as all too new for me to have driven....

John Deere. From what I have seen in 5 Walker comparisons with other brands it will have the best performance. I’m surprised a Claas with tracks is a similar price to JD. Would think Claas would not depreciate as much.. We got a price for a John Deere combine, told them it was too much to swap and they dropped the price £15000. Do think Claas will move much on price. When you start to get near a deal I think the JD will be cheaper.
