I have always rated the Hitachis but haven’t had a 12/13 ton machine since the 120-5’s. How does the Case residual values stack up over the hitachis.

I’m sure the hitachi will be worth a bit more at resale but I’d imagine they are dearer to buy

Hello Thomas. It’s the 130D that’s in Larne. I’m driving it myself. My 130C is attending to one of Quinn’s piling rigs in the middle of ballymena. The doosan belongs to the building contractor I’m working to Connolly&Fee

My bad, thought it was a C
Ah I see, there’s a local man here with a doosan and thought it was maybe him. Not many of them about in this part

No it’s connolly&Fee doesn’t seem a bad digger. Like most builders machines it doesn’t get a lot of love. To many drivers lolMy bad, thought it was a C

Havnt used it yet. (Don’t want to dirty it) lol it still has to get sign written. The sign written guy didn’t arrive before the loader man. So dealer said they would send it on and then send someone to my yard to finish it off. I know one thing for sure. It has very big boots to fill in the Cx18B. It is the best machine I have ever bought. Over 2000 trouble free hours. I love that we machine.

Do u mean extra services hydraulic ways?? It hasn’t got any vin Just standerd hammer piping. But it’s factory piped for a hydraulic quick hitch which will be a very welcome addition. My Cx18b has just a semi hitch where u push the back pin in. It showing a fair bit of wear on it now at 2000hrs. I find the hydraulic hitch holds the buckets tighter so they don’t wear as quick.

Sounds a nice set up Jim. Was proportional control down the boom an option when you configured it? Or can you run a tilty of the hammer lines

I’m not sure vin. It Probly could be an option. But I never really asked. Because ( I can’t afford a tilty)lol 
I made phone call to dealer on the Friday morning after seeing a post advertising new 1.9’s on there Facebook page the night before I rang at 8.10 in the morning just to really ask a price. Salesman was on site with me before half 9 we talked for a while and He left and rang me with figures while I was eating my sandwhiches at 10.30. Deal was done over the phone and digger was delivered to me a week later. All very rushed and to be honest I lost sleep thinking was I wise buying a new digger the way the country is at the minute. But it’s here now. So to late to back out now. Lol when I done the deal I had never even saw a 19c before. So me and my brother took a spin to the dealers yard one Saturday to get a look at one up close… and bought a T7 210. Lol
