    Came across this on Donedeal
    http://www.donedeal.ie/for-sale/tractors/1714608

    Website says they have a perkins engine. I gather they are Chinese made.

    85 HP with 100 hrs amd trailer for €10,000. Am I missing something?

    I sat up on a tractor at the ploughing, dont know if the same make or not. Took one look at the foot pedals and that was enough for me. Made from really light stuff.

    I bought a chinese bicycle iun dunnes a couple of years ago. It was so bad it was dangerous and needed to be pedaled to go downhill. It would make me think twice about bying a tractor in similar circumstances.

    Asking only 10k , you could offer them less.
    Seems very cheap either way
    Could be as good as any ,who knows

    If you go look at it take a digital calipers with you. Put it on a few 14 or 19 mm bolt heads. I bet the 19mm could be anywhere between 18.75 and 19.2. Imagine what the tolerences are like in the gearbox?

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.
