I have some real reservations about an engcon in my line of work. Not to say there isn't going to be some jobs where it's just the job. But when it comes to hoofing boulder around on the moor and being able to track out miles with just a bucket and thumb and no that I can lift shift and sort anything out with that is pretty hard to beat. An engcon and grab will be additional weight, limited capacity but the fact I'd have to track out with a grab and bucket to be able to cover the same work and alot of swapping between grab and bucket is not beneficial. However currently I have 2 3 tonners and one of them is getting on a bit now so line of thought is if I had the bobcat I'd keep one of the Taks with a Thumb on and sell the other, the bobcat would definitely add more strings to my bow in terms of versatililty then just having 2 fairly basic 3 ton taks.

Mate thats the beauty of a top hitch setup. You don't have to use the Engcon, it can sit in the shed if you're brutalising boulders! Stick a thumb on it. It can do everything, and it'll do it great with the extra breakout of the S30 top hitch.

You keep saying you want a properly towable modern 2.5 tonner. Here it is with bells on.

Just go for it and see how you get on. I've got £700 plus VAT here for the grab so long as it's not bent- just put it on a pallet and i'll get it picked up.

I promise it'll do you better than the duck!

I agree I think it's a fair price for the bobcat.
