[QUOTE="Smith31, post: 7019283, member: 78458"] It's not just tractors in my experience most motors produced by Japenese and German manufacturers tend to be far more reliable and hold their value far better. We have a VW Passat tdi here, it's done over 350k other then standard servicing and tyres it is still going strong, had it been a Ford or Renault it would have died on us years ago. At the other end of the spectrum to a Fendt, we have a Honda powered petrol jet wash, which is used once a year to wash the combine down, never fails to start even with old fuel and is still worth what we paid for it 6 years ago.
