    Check this out on Agriland - Auction report: £132,000 (plus VAT and commission) for County tractor – bought by an Irish man https://www.agriland.ie/farming-news/auction-report-132000-plus-vat-and-commission-for-county-tractor-bought-by-an-irish-man/

    All in I think it works out just over 190000 euro

    That's serious money even for a rare trator

    Ah jeez, you can’t keep anything quite in this country, needed a good tractor for putting the bales out:D:D

    Is he a farmer or collector or what I wonder? He must have very deep pockets to justify that kinda spend.

    Is it 4 wheel steer ? You'd be well into the next townland to turn it around!

    Seems there is a Billy Keogh who operates a waste disposal business in Waterford.

    Another Waterford based Billy Keogh was convicted of rape back in 2008.

    Doesn't look like the guy pictured in the article, unfortunate luck with the name.

    He has a good excuse now to say he can't buy them.

    Luck of the draw that's all.

    More results from the auction here. Hopefully he gets it home before brexit adds a few more percent to it. I wonder what else is in his collection.

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

    Why do I think that someone else is probably delighted he got bet on that bidding.
    I would love to see it auctioned again to see would it come within an asses roar of the price it made
