Forst TR16 anyone got one??

[kentjames]

I think the road tow was around the £15k mark but I can't be sure as I looked at so many chippers that day and until someone comes up with a decent quote for finance it makes no difference

[Ian C]

I cannot help with costs, they belong to firms I do work with. The quadtrack wasn't liked as it didn't feed as well as the others, appeared to have a high CofG and seemed a bit flimsy for the rough and tumble of utility arb.

 

Service and back up from both firm's is excellent but getting spares for the greenmechs is a hassle.

 

Never had too wait more than 2 days for any gm spares.

What about the tracked offering from TP, Atkinson Vos was offering them at a good price not long ago.

But are they any good? Price is not as important as build quality and reliability, if I'm getting a new one I want it to be the dogs tatties:)

[Matthew Storrs]

absolutely no idea if they are any good im afraid but if its anything like their PTO machines, id say its worth considering, having just got a TP200 to replace my timberwolf, I was amazed at how much better the design is for maintenance.

Hi all, anyone got a TR16 as I'm looking at getting a new chipper and would like the lowdown on these machines. Their website make them look awesome but are they really? Thanks for any help you can give.
