Sorry the link has expired. I'm sure there where some 4 in 1 on Facebook the other day. There is a specific Avant attachment sales page on there.

There's this but brackets will need changed.

What did it go for?
The white 640 went 11k this time round, it made 9.5k in the previous auction.

No idea, I'd bid £1100 at it, there not much more for new by the time you add the buyers premium ect.

That 640 looked like an ex Chris Wright tarmacing one, it'd done 3 or 4k hour iirc.

Been using mine today,...I'm converted

I've only done it because I've a customer with work for it...now I've got it I can put it my other customers. I'd not of done it if I didn't have a head start for it.

Trust me, it will pay for itself.

I bought mine as a ‘that looks handy, let’s finance it over five years’ jobby.

Five years on she’s only done 1000 hours but each of those has saved probably three hours in dumper or digger time.

Unless you can get a patch planner attachment for it it probably spent its life with a sweeper attachment working along with a small planner doing patches and tying in details at junctions etc

They do do a patch planer but considering how brutal they are on a 5t skidsteer I don't think it would be a fun experience in an Avant.

First job today is clearing up a little accident from the tree lads. Apparently the trailer ended up in the ditch so they just tipped it out there lol

Bet you wish you had the 4in1 bucket!

Yes, but it's also day rate, so no rush

I never got on with the 4 in 1 i had, that said it was a modified skid steer one and fairly heavy

I wouldn't be without mine. It's a genuine M1 item and has been brilliant except they don't supply it with a bolt on edge or offer one. So I had to get one made.

It saves so much time on every task invloving moving loose materials.

Agree a learning curve but so much easier than a normal bucket

I grew up driving a 3cx then the cat version's so I can't not see the advantage of a 4in1. Only thing that I may not like is it been on buttons and not a rocker switch on the avant....but will see as an when I get one.

But overall I'm happy so far with the avant

Yeah bit like the boom I often wish there was a better way of controlling it when your trying to be smooth with it

If you use the lever instead of the buttons the boom is fine.
