That throws a spanner in the works!

 

I just rang them up - over 30 grand for the standard model. Its got a 45 horsepower engine! (No mistake, i conformed that) I think shreks wee chipper is safe for now.

My, that's a smart tool - but you gotta be hurtin bad to need that at that price! Tunnisen (TS) doe something similar but, as above, I tink the price kinda prohibits things a tad.:sneaky2:

you might aswell take a wee tow behind, grind off the axle and bolt it to a pallet truck lol. For little gardens it needs to be light and manouverable to make the whole thing work, we carry Gloria up and down stairs, through garage doors and hall ways. small is best for sure:thumbup:

They had a prototype before they were bought out. It was a backgarden one with hydraulic infeed but was heavy and had to be pushed about. Ive seen a photo and heard tales.

 

I am happy with what my timberwolf 13/75 can do for the price i paid for it. Its solid, simple engineering. But now second hand greenmechs are coming onto the market, i think ill end up next year with one of those. It really does seem to bridge the gap, and for anything larger i can rent a hydraulic one out for the few days a year where its needed.

Just thinking about selling my Gloria as it's been in the garage for a while now and not been used. It's got newly sharpened blades on it, it's the 18hp electric start version. It's a great little machine but just don't use it enough at the moment. Sods law will be a job comes up where I will!!!!

It's in great condition, slight dent in the spout where the previous chap dropped it whilst removing it!!!

Looking for £3100 for the machine. Mine has probably done 18-20 hours with me and the previous owner had it for two weeks where he used it twice!

 

New ones are £4195 plus vat and next year the price is going up apparently due to materials and VAT!!!

 

Give me a call on 07730683069 should you be interested.

In all honesty that seems a bit steep - there were some 'new' ones being sold by a dealer on earborist for £2800 to get rid of old stock. They went in a flash mind.
