Mini digger new prices

[Steve]

No but thanks anyway, I was wondering how much a 2 tonne canopy version was.

I've had recent Wacker prices. The ET20 with a cab and VDS was £27k with hydraulic hitch. I imagine the cabless might be £1500-£2000 less... Dealer told me Wacker aren't going to sell non VDS under 2.4t in the UK as standard.

That’s a fkin daft price. They may as well give up on the uk market.

The funny thing is they are that keen to sell VDS I was offered a 2.4t Wacker for less than a non VDS version.

Thanks. That is about what I expected, I will have to make a phone call this week.

Has anyone had a go on a New Holland E19C?, Saw a new one sitting in the dealers yard this afternoon. Had a quick look over it and must say seemed a well built thing. Big cab on it, dual aux lines, nice large arse. Perhaps a bit dated looking. Think it's a rebadged Hyundai, but plenty of steel in the arm.

It is indeed a rebadged Hyundai- at stupid money. The 17c is £23k plus VAT from our local NH dealer. From Hyundai, the same thing (with buttons for aux rather than foot pedal too) is £19k plus VAT. That's not terrible when you consider that mine in 2016 (albeit with joystick roller for aux) was £1
4.5k plus VAT.

The 17s are a very smooth tool. The undercarriage was the weak point but they've since beefed it up. The 19 may be the Mitsubishi engine still and possible a different valve block so could be totally different. Deffo dated in design by now.

I thought they had kubota engines.

The 19 used to be Mitsubishi and the 17 the Kubota d902 but that may well have changed.

4k mark up for different paint and badges is crazy

Yeah this one I looked at this afternoon had a Kubota- 898cc. It was the cab that I liked on it- was really spacious- loads of space behind the seat for a dog and lunchbox. Nice pair of track pedals. I really thought it looked a well built machine. I wouldnt actually care too much if it looks a bit dated as long as it performs well. The ground clearance looked a bit poor on it and blade in close to the machine wouldn't be my choice but yet to find a machine that has it all tbh.

I always thought they were ok. Either way they are in my good books at the moment for sorting a new hydraulic hose out for me today for under £30!

Which one did you have the 17? Or at least Hyundai version of it?

I know it’s a bit older but an agri contracting friend of mine had had an E18B from new and speaks highly of it. He looks after it, but gets worked hard both digging and with a breaker.

 

[Furniss]

Had a go in a Hyundai 2.7t not too long ago ...reminded me of the 90's but not in a good way, very agricultural.
