    Was told where I could pick up a 50D loader for feeding etc, handy money too :D. Going to give a look at it over the weekend if I can, anything I should look out for. They give any major problems? Thanks

    Have been told they don't have the best of a gearchange as it has lots of UJ's on it.

    Also like to warm themselves up a bit too!!

    Rust seems to have killed quite a few too.

    Engine is reliable Perkins and gearbox just apply the usual Torque checks.

    The gear linkage used to sieze up on them and they wouldnt go into gear fully damaging the gears.
    Rusty cabs the cab mountings can rust through in some cases causing the cab to drop.
