If anything i would move your name to the left of the boom so its easy to read.

really I would say add headers for your name and then contact details at bottom, that way its easy to see who you are and your contact details

Have used them for at least 5 years and never had any problems. Even used their next day option once and they were good to their word and delivered them direct to the exhibition hall..

Out of interest what do we reckon a Takeuchi 216 with just over 600 hours on the clock, tilting hitch with built in hydraulic hitch , led lights all around and tracks are about 70% be worth ...

 

[TiltyShaun]

As a guess, less than the new price!! What year is it as that would make a difference!

 

[Hg2702]

2017 is the year , got twin aux lines and proportional controls

Less than the equivelant TB016

Is it honestly that bad?

 

[Hg2702]

That the worry Rory ! It’s not a bad machine but having played with a new cat last week it’s quite clear Takeuchi are miles behind on the mini excavators , wouldn’t mind but when I was discussing it at the Takeuchi stand I got told I could have all the extras on a 7 ton machine

I hate to piss on your chips, but the TB216 I hired was a dog of a machine. If you want to change, you could look at getting the hitch adjusted to fit the new machine? If you've got plenty of buckets keep most of them and sell the TB216 with a couple of the most worn ones mounted direct.

Used twice on your recommendation and very happy, thanks.

Takeuchi would be worth a reasonable amount they always do fair at auction

Was thinking of selling it with the hitch as it was designed with the 2 aux lines and proportional controls and would then fit another one to the next machine

Would be a key selling point in my eyes as there’s not many 216 Takeuchis with that fitted

IMHO they majorly cocked up on the 200 series below 3t... overcomplicated what was a simple machine!

Only if someone wants one. Powertilts sure aren't cheap new, but I only gave 1k for mine secondhand. I think you'd take quite a hit.

I'd offer it at two prices, one with hitch and buckets and one with direct mounted grading bucket.

Yep massively right the 016 was a cracking machine

Regards taking a massive hit on the powertilt my original manual one was only £1500 new so if I lose £500 on it well it’s earned me that in saved time

Married my Doris on Saturday and what a day for it ! Can’t believe how fast it all went or how lucky i am! couldn’t let the day go by without having a machine there

 

[doobin]

[Hg2702]
