BobCat Telehandlers

[aidank]

Does anyone know anything about BobCat telehandlers.

Built in France and a good bit in it in price between them and JCB especially in SH models

DANA axles cant be bad
Doosan engines

Machine like this I would be interested in for agri work more so than plantwork, so don’t need any jacks or anything like that.

Very rare to see them in the uk. Are they genuine bobcat or a rebadged somthing else

They don't get very good reviews on the farming forum
Not sure if they are bobcat but think you can get them in Massey red aswell

From Farmers weekly,

All of the telehandlers are designed and manufactured at the firm’s Pontchâteau factory in north-west France.

Bobcat’s handlers have been sold in Massey Ferguson colours for decades, with its own-branded machines initially reserved for the construction market.

The Bobcat's and Massy's are Rebadged Dieci's to my understanding.

Very good... Bar the Electrics which give trouble as the years go by so I am reliably told.

The farm wher I rent use Masseys, I never realised they were Bobcat. Look like a decent machine to me. The drivers moan about them but that's the same with all kit!

Dana axles had a terrible rep. at one time .... Plasticine guts, is the description a mate of mine used to use for them -- he's a transmission biz -- 'praps things have changed with Dana ? looks a nice unit
