  1. Where did you get it from? Wonder how much a 2.5t is hmmmm
  2. It's near given up here
  3. Only know of a valtra 6400 and winch near there
  4. I was told this also. Not and shouldn't be my problem....
  5. Right cheers for that. I would just want to change for a basic machine to be fair. We've just had a big purchase so this has been pushed down the line for a year or so. Currently have an old Volvo ec15bxr my lad that drives it wants a 1.9t twin speed tracking and vari track next lol
  6. Fair enough. Haven't a clue personally but just wanted to put into perspective for when looking at second hand machines. Thanks
  7. What sort of brass are these new roughly? 17k plus vat?
  8. Prussics are shite and bind up with sap and shite.... no good for your elbows too... Get an isc rope grab for it and be done with it.... only 30 odd quidish
  9. Just looking through and no one answered if they are CE marked for loler :(would be handy to know
  10. I believe they were good tractors but non turbod..... Loved my old case 856xl. Watch the cabs for rotting...
  11. This old girl does me well
  12. Just wondering what everyone is using for bulk diesel tank 1000ltr plus.... Currently using an ibc but was considering getting a proper tank with a 12v pump and a nozzle so I could stop using so many 25ltr drums and throwing them onto the tractor bonnet to fill it up etc bastard when its windy and filling it up! Cheers
  13. Mines like that with a red light on.... Everything works though so just left it. A friend said it's the micro relays that need changing.... Still haven't gotten round to it lol ?
  14. Your valtra Stevie?
  15. Tractors are very strong money at the moment.... Depends what you want but I'd stretch that budget if you can. Even then you could still be buying someone's old worn out tractor
  16. I love my 362... its my daily saw. My older 361 just sits in the bottom of the box and has done for a good while now
  17. Yeah seen another like that too that was welded up badly.... I'd get shut of the trailer back for a 5' one but that would mean thousands to change the stump grinder for a narrower one..... At the moment I can get tracked chipper and grinder on or the grinder and 1.5t digger.... Great for me
  18. Love my gx106 just purely for the capacity and the size. At times it can be a bit numb but nice trailer all round..... Only thing with the GX range is they are all folds and rivited together..... Don't know how long that will last lol ?
  19. Just some shitty horrible bits in fairness..... the butt buggered it up with being so big... had to cut it in half for the crane to lift it then a pain with the bolster gaps being loaded up so much the other bit had to go on the front loader lol.
  20. One manky horrible load the other day.
  21. Bottom of gear lever snapped on the tractor the other day! Right towards the end of the day with only a couple.more sticks to pick up! Luckily the snapped bit was still sat in the selector fork and not in the bottom of the gearbox! Took it home and welded it up. Tractor had a sleepover in a field and put it back together the next day and got the timber away. Nice cheap easy fix at least....
  22. Josh over in Sweden not long since got a 50 odd hp a540 new...
  23. Definitely has to be a 190. Could never go back to a 150.... this is an upgrade from a a530 jensen
