30K excl. VAT i think but at the same time it looks like a much cleaner machine compared to some of the bigger ones that you would find at that priceWhat were they looking for it

I don't know, you would see about as many 110's as 150's for sale I would say. If you were used to a bigger tractor they probably would seem underpowered, anyone I've ever spoke to always seem happy enough anyway!110’s woulnt be as popular would they ? I was led to believe there a bit underpowered ?
Tuff men alright. I was trying to buy a 390 from them .couldn't deal.they would be good to have things right going out tho. Probably not doing much this week as they buried their mother yesterdayStrong money, but all getting strong now with the price of new tractors, drove her couldn’t find much fault only one spool not working and front suspension accumulators need gassing. Tuff men down that way @kverneland es 80 wouldnt give anything away!!!

Time moves on I guess, I'm not sure it is justified but there are lots of lads out there with 80+k sunk into a tractor to do simple enough jobs in greater comfort. Lovely to drive but a depreciating asset at the end of the day.When we bought the cs94 i was trying to steer the aul lad towards a cs110 but he was saying that it would be too big and he wasn't a fan of the electrics or all the buttons on the one stick. Most livestock lads are sticking with tractors 115-130hp now as a small tractor are the days of 80hp-100hp as a livestock tractor going ?

Is it just a phallus measuring contest?
We moved to a more comfortable tractor very recently (cab suspension, good seat and good front suspension).
Got a back scan recently too. Saw the results today - two bulging discs and much more back wear than my GP was expecting to see.
Very pleased with the move to more comfort now.....
sure its not the lanes to get to said fields?I find if lads rolled there fields It has a better effect than spending 100k on a tractor
You could give 15min on the road and 5 hours in the fieldsure its not the lanes to get to said fields?
unless you are stuck drawing slurry down the worst lane possibleYou could give 15min on the road and 5 hours in the field
Is there that much difference comfort wise between a 30 series premium and your Fendt?We moved to a more comfortable tractor very recently (cab suspension, good seat and good front suspension).

I'm sure reliability was a prime motivator when you changed with the tillage work you do?
Do you need an 80k tractor to follow a herd of cows with a bag of fertilizer is what I'm asking.
Why would someone drive a new BMW, Mercedes or Audi to get from A to B when it could be done with a ten year old Kia C'eed.Is there that much difference comfort wise between a 30 series premium and your Fendt?

Opulence?Why would someone drive a new BMW, Mercedes or Audi to get from A to B when it could be done with a ten year old Kia C'eed.
I don't understand that mentality, it all seems extremely wasteful. Why not spend that money on infrastructure to make your life easier?Whether someone can justify an 80k tractor for topping and spreading fert is subjective in my opinion.
They might rather have a nice tractor rather than paying some of the value in tax so it can be wasted by the government.
They might have an interest in machinery and get a kick out of it that way.
They might see it as a way of encouraging the next generation to stay involved on the farm.
