Have seen a few of those machine tools elsewhere, I'm sure - deffo the Colchester 2000 lathe, radial drill, wood lathe, Geka and lots 43 to 48 ... so interesting that they state this " All lots in this auction are owned from new " -- the radial drill is mid/late '60s - the Fobco7-8 early '70s![]()

I have made an offer in this that’s been accepted. Am going up again on Wednesday with a friend to take a proper good look at it to make sure nothing obvious. Charles is fairly handy after a lifetime of ag engineering so hopefully he can give it the all clear. I’ve done homework with local spares agent and all seevice spares available.I think the challenge with this is that at first glance from the nearside everyone compares it to a lorry mount FLTand then it looks dear. Once you look a bit harder it's actually a mini tele handler which shares a drive system with moffett. (Hyd 3 wd with difflock) Twice the power and flow rate and AUX a self levelling mono boom make it very appealing. As others said, not much else out there at that price. I think it's probably a couple K over where it should be though.
Update. Went up yesterday and went RIGHT through it with a cleverer person than me. Sent report and photos to seller and told him I am out. Shame as it would be a rather handy little tool, but needs too much work/money to bring it up to a point where I can keep a ticket on it. The fact that the rougher £6000+vat one up north is still not sold speaks volumes.I have made an offer in this that’s been accepted.

Seller is confident that apart from the missing engine cover and a couple of oil drips in the engine bay (and the rear wash wipe) its all up and working.
Anyone care to help with suggestions as what to check/look out for?

Lister petter engine.
Thanks in advance.
Sounds like a bullet dodged.
looks to have had a reasonable life -- chains're looking ropey and sprockets on the way - very tidy though really
What’s this worth ?
Could do with opinions given values are supposed to be moving a bit .
That’s what I thought , probably still on its first set of running gear . Point for negotiation maybe.looks to have had a reasonable life -- chains're looking ropey and sprockets on the way - very tidy though really
exactly my thoughts ...... deffo a valid point for discussion/kicking them to deathThat’s what I thought , probably still on its first set of running gear . Point for negotiation maybe.
here's why probablyHe’s just dropped it in price . I wouldn’t say it’s that bad, just needs more love than the price warrants.
Very useful size machine.
The 523 was in the yard Wednesday. Nice looking little machine. Think it’s the one in photo below as there can’t be 2 with that exact bespoke load guard!here's why probably
Timber . Possibly removable. I’d guess dungwalling from photo.What sort of deck does it have?
