    Its all about condition really so impossible to give a price without seeing it or having a picture at least. By and large they don't make big money compared with other comparable makes, probably around €2000 - €2500 for a tidy one would be the realistic selling price, although you'll see some advertised for twice that :rolleyes:

    I would really recommend just getting the brakes sorted for a few hundred quid (common issue on crystals) and keeping it, especially if you say its an otherwise decent tractor.

    I haven't sold yet still exploring .....

    Know very little bout tractors, brakes is the biggest problem with this tractor.

    Was talking to a guy lately who had a crystal years ago and had problem with the brakes as well

    He told me that a guy reconfigured the brakes by putting in some kind of a iron bar to replace the brake system.

    Anyone know anything bout this does it work etc

    yes it was modifying the hand brake to act with the pedals but this modification would have insurance implications..................

    Biggest issue with the brakes is lack of knowledge by the person doing them and only replacing the liners or discs and not setting up the whole brake setup.........
