Ditto, I'm off to bed so I can have a lie in before going to Northampton to see the Stockcar racing. Life is about fun - not bitching about who has the biggest. To a degree, we are slaves to system. Who cares!!!

Timberwolf. Not biased, we dont run them, but nothing else available to vote for! Why Timberwolf? Not knocking anyones prefrence, but I think chippers are a tool, not a badge or a luxury. Why spend more on a machine that wont do another thing for you or add another penny to profit? I cant see that its a better investment either because any residual value just gets rolled into the next machine in any case, so you never see it until you hang the boots up! The difference in price on supposed German quality (LOL, these aint BMWs!) and a Greenmech/Timberwolf is my wages for a whole month.

 

Lots of us want a machine with decent performance but under 750 kg because of towing limits. Greenmech and Timberwolf build them and then get knocked for being too light! That MX200 is a tonne isnt it? Not really apples and apples. If Timberwolf built in another 250 kilos to the TW150 and put in the big heavy flywheel etc wouldn’t it get the same affect thats boasted about for the MX200?? But then it would cost much more and be way over the towing limits.

 

Brill to see the Green Machines doing great in Germany. If the German machines are so fantastic, why are they buying British? Cant get my head round this clamor for German and Japanese stuff – history and all that and just the way I was brought up.

[Steve Bullman]

you make some good points jonnie, and you;re right...you cant compare machines which are not comparable.

a better poll would have been greenmech vs timberwolf, jensen vs scheisling

Fair Play, bring your views t'table yoof.
