    TBH i think if i won it id sell it too, having 30 or 40 thousand in a tractor doesn't really make sence to me when your tractor for 15,000 will do the job just as good.

    Completely.

    If I'd won I'd have to seriously seriously consider the merit of keeping it, versus trading it for something older plus either cash, or an implement or two.

    yeah id say thats about all he will get for it maybe a bit more, if he wants to move it on fairly soon .....I know nothing about case tractors but id imagine you wouldn't buy a new one for less than 30k any way.

    Typical Irish paper, naming the competition winner but not saying what he called it. Does anyone know the name he gave it?

    i'm only messing Aoife, I don't know what he called it,
    but surely it was a random draw and the first person out won it? They hardly went through all the entries and picked the best name :eek:
