Someone is a dreamer but also shows that that has either been well abused or they wear quickly
The first one is French built- around £12k pre covid IIRC. I drove one on site once, didn't like it but it seemed solidly built. However that's a pretty long list of bits that had to be replaced!

The second one looks like a pretty good Chinese copy. It might even have less problems!

With the plethora of Chinese mini track loaders suddenly available I'm glad I shifted my DitchWitch last year (or was it 2023?)

Was it not handy though or just too much money sitting there not getting used?

do it as well as you can,but learn to do it better
The simple answer to that is you don’t need one……… you need two!!!!

Build wise it doesn't look too bad it's got 0.5 hours on the clock, bucket is on the small side, looks like a generic 739cc petrol engine, 17.6kw so around 23.6hp. thought it was going to be around 900mm wide but it's 1100mm, unsure what to do with it

Might be tempted early next year as firewood shifter. Would like to see real world lift capacity

Has 460 on the side so assuming that's it's lifting capacity, cant find any actual information and turns out when I was searching for it, I didn't realise the details brought up a different version the 300 which is 900mm or so wide

There was over 30 at Euro auctions last week. I thought the price would fall through the floor, but they ranged from £1700 to £2300.
presumably plus all the ££bollaux :mad: ... bet the first one was the 1700 quid one though :rolleyes:
anyone got any pix of 'em?

you lot were all telling me I need one ... as said - tempt me :giggle:

I hear you, but can't justify (to myself) £3+k on a wheel barrow :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:
If you had one outside your house door in the morning you would step on to it and it would be so useful it would never be more than 10 paces away from you through the day. 😀😀😀😀
without doubt ....
and I'd probably have to fight Pam for it frequently once she sussed it ....
I would still get the perpetual Q though --
" what do you want one of them for? " :rolleyes:
