Sany sy26u

[Pedrod355]

For £25K + vat worth a look?
Good 5-10k cheaper than your top brands… And they actually want your trade unlike majority of the well known brands!

Brother was on one a few times, didn’t think much of it. I only drove one in the dealers yard and wasn’t struck. The sy18c and the 135 etc seemed to be better machines, the 26 and 35 just didn’t feel right

 

[Pedrod355]

At that price cant be up to same level as usual brands, Worth a look for a farmer or someone just wanting the basics etc through

 

[Thomas7740]

Personally not enough in it, when I priced one it was £23,500, the Wacker ez26 was £25,500, no chance at that little difference

Have you priced a 2.7T machine lately? Like to hear if you get one for under 30k +vat!

Yeh was quoted £31k for fairly decent spec. Also quoted from another company £36k!

For same machine?

For same machine?

The 36k had extra 2nd aux circuit & extra weight, Seemed a lot of money just for those two extra’s?

From the same dealer?

5k for that is expensive.

What machine was it on?

Just go to finning. Every other dealer is a subsidiary so they put their wedge on top.

30k for a 2.5tonner....right now with prices and demand softening id be having a look at low hours nearly new.

The 2.6 sany is a lovely looking, hi spec machine but I don’t like it. I tried it in bsnners yard with no hitch when I picked up the smaller ones. When they rang with a good deal on a 2.6 I took it. It’s been out only once on our own jobs, we all prefer the old doosans. Not sure why it’s so noddy, and geometry doesn’t feel right but the miller quick hitch and buckets wouldn’t look out of place on a 5t! I’m going to sort a counterweight out for it but for self drive it would have to come off anyway to keep the weight down. Still haven’t been over s bridge with it but I bet it’s overweight already..it’s built heavy.

Mate of mine has one. His only problem with it was the constant nodding and he was waiting for the counter weight to come in.

5 year warranty! I wonder how they would get on in the hire market, cheap enough, maybe looking to work for a Sany dealer

Trouble is I think Hire companies rely on fairly high resale value. If Sany drop Iike a stone after 5 years it suddenly doesn't seem so appealing.
Might be wrong it will be better as brand awareness in this country grows they're any good.

At Leeds Euro auctions this week, there was a 13t Sany 2022 with 3hrs went for 46k. 2no 2021 26s went around 17.5k to 18.5k. One had 350 hrs and the other over a 1000 hours I can't remember exactly.

My mate likes his sy18c and I think it's not bad 18k plus vat

Decent Yanmar lump in it at 1267cc. Many 3 tonners are less than that now.
Proportional hydraulics on the joystick and track pedals. It's far better equipped than my Takeuchi TB216
