Forestry Tractor

Will find out and let you know.

Here's a couple of fairly recent photos.

Was toying with the idea of transplanting my botex onto a newer tractor with a few more horsepower until I saw the current  prices of  00 and 50 series Valtras

they’ve gone up in price 20%plus in the last few years .

Anything in my budget had really high hours.

They sound like good machines Chris. Do you know who’s doing the auction?
 

 

 

Gilbert-Baitsons in Hull. Looks like buyers fees are a good chunk on top though.

If anyone was interested in any of the tractors etc and had any questions - feel free to PM me - I have nothing to gain from it but have spent a lot of time using most of them so can hopefully give a little bit of background history on them if required.  

 

That hypro processor has done very, very little (probably not more than 100-150t) and other than half an hour one morning has only ever been used by me - I reckon that will be very cheap compared to a new one.  It would be worth making sure they have the computer and winch remote for it though as they aren't in the pictures and were kept separate anyway, but probably expensive to replace.

Yes worth noting for the unwary, especially if not VAT registered, that adds 45% to the bidded price

I have a Valtra N-101 with 3500 hours on it. They are now selling for more than I paid 4 years back.

 

Crazy.

We will be selling our N111 at some point. But we’re so busy I can’t say when. We’ve finally got our hands on this beauty, which is supposed to be the replacement but we’re going to run with both of them for a while. I’ll put it on here when it’s ready to go….

The one we’re selling.
