A friend of mine is looking for a 2CX, budget around £10-12k. Does anyone know of anything?

Looking very tidy. Wondered who was the last owner?

I think iron and earth had one on their web page. Haven't looked for a while though.

Thanks, I’ll let him know. I think he might have to up his budget though.

no QH on the back though ??? or an extender not sure why that would be maybe a hammer dedicated machine for a black top gang as it has one on the front but i think it will be £20K plus they are surprisingly hard to come by

think most of them spend life doing tarmac road mending. Mine never got alot of love from it's previous ops. The prop shafts seem never to have been greased since it left the factory.

have a good look before you shell out loads of hard earned as they seem to get little loved unless you're lucky enough to get one off an old school op.

I wonder if a compact tractor would do what he wants. You can get alot more for your money with a Chinese tractor. Get a new one for same price as a complicated shagged out jcb 2cx.. i used to be on hire to stoke council on one and it wasn't a nice thing to operate.

I did tell him he’d be better off with a 3CX, I reckon there would be more chance of finding something decent.
