Every couple of days you could stick up a video here of her running so that those with keen hearing could warn you of impending disaster....forewarned is forearmed. 😊@blue n' gold just washed our one this morning. Just about a year of use with 900hrs clocked up and touch wood not a single glitch.
So far, we are delighted with it. Very comfortable and capable. Can happily handle 2tn pallets but a bit of weight on the back is advisable.
A CVT gearbox is ideal for loader work
The comfort is a massive improvement over the previous tractor (6430 premium). I’ve done a couple of 20hr days on it and must say that the way they are made makes it less tiring.

Ah go on J, you’re just sore that you are stuck with that Volvo your friend didn’t buyEvery couple of days you could stick up a video here of her running so that those with keen hearing could warn you of impending disaster....forewarned is forearmed. 😊
Just taking the pee.Ha ha if you must know I have a spreader on a bogey with a bag crane attached
I wouldn’t mind being stuck with it at all. It’ll probably increase in value. I’m tempted to purchase it.Ah go on J, you’re just sore that you are stuck with that Volvo your friend didn’t buy
If one was to be led entirely by the forum as regards what to buy, the country would be awash with 110-90’s and CVX’s.....!
is everything in france made of butter? and there i was thinking dairy farmers were rough with machinesI wouldn’t mind being stuck with it at all. It’ll probably increase in value. I’m tempted to purchase it.
On vario boxes. I wouldn’t have anything else now. Powershifts are cumbersome and expensive to repair. I was in a dealers yard recently where a 3yr old 180hp Case was split in about five pieces getting the powershift refurbished. The mechanics showed me a bearing that was too small/inadequate for the job, and they said that the box needs a refurb about every 4K hours. Lovely.
I did it one day, never again a cold November day trying to put on and off pto shafts and ur hands covered in dung. I was in my youth aswell.Noooooooooooooooooooooooo
I use to do that and even in youth that was hardship.
But I think the OP has other tractors.
If your paying 95k for a T6.145 DCT you are getting your leg lifted. When i bought my T6.145 in November 2019, when in the dealers office i seen an invoice for a full spec T6.180 DCT with Q6M loader, it was £83000. Last month the Case dealer gave me a price to change my 145 for a Maxxumm 125 ActivDrive8 or a Vestrum 110 CVX. The 125 came to £73k and the Vestrum was £65k. Offered me £49k for my 145 ElectroCommand, with 900ish hours on it. According to salesman its roughly £4k difference between each gearbox, so i reckon a T6.145 DCT would be in the 60-65k bracket.
And plus and including Vat probablyWe are talking different currencies, € v £, and as discussed, with any brand there is wild variance in specs. A T6.180 DCT with a low spec, could well come out cheaper than a super high spec T6.145, there is no such thing as a ‘standard’ tractor anymore.
Yes, you are right, we were quoting the 145 including vatAnd plus and including Vat probably
21 at the momentOh i didnt realise yous lot include vat in your prices down there. What is your vat rate? 20%?
I didn’t realize that Case were made in France?is everything in france made of butter? and there i was thinking dairy farmers were rough with machines

Thought the 531 would be more than 75 hp. ? And the 6530 advertised as 150 hp. Thought they were around 110hp? Loaders look good value on paperhttps://www.donedeal.ie/tractors-for-sale/john-deere-6530-premium/26327480?campaign=14

The construction spec one is around 75hp or 100 with the turbo. Most the agri spec seem to be 125 or 145hp. I was told a lot of the newer construction spec ones don’t have turbos because the 75hp one doesn’t need to meet the same emissions standards as the 100hp. The John Deere would be closer to 110 than 150hp alright.Thought the 531 would be more than 75 hp. ? And the 6530 advertised as 150 hp. Thought they were around 110hp?

The 75hp construction spec JCB’s have a turbo,there just derated,they’ve had a turbo since they went common rail.The construction spec one is around 75hp or 100 with the turbo.

Are there other differences? Can they be brought up to agri spec? They are often significantly cheaper, at least they were when we were buying ours 5 years ago. We were told there were significant differences but I can't remember details.The 75hp construction spec JCB’s have a turbo,there just derated,they’ve had a turbo since they went common rail.
A farm special would usually have limited slip diffs,electric joystick + higher flow hydraulics,6speed gearbox,higher hp engine (can’t buy a construction spec with the 145hp engine)better lighting package etc..Are there other differences?

A fabulous machine, capable of tremendous speed on the Ragg road I have noticedFendt cost about the same as NH T6.140 DC transmission new.
Approx. 5k cheaper than MF6715 DYNA 6..
JD 6130R 20K more.
None of above would have vario transmission.
