I am looking to replace my ageing bobcat this year, which although is in fully working order, its old and its petrol.
I have the smallest bobcat, about a 350kg lift, about 3' wide.
I have been looking at equivelents on the market, and narrowed it down to a few, Thomas, Gehl, Bobcat.
I can get a thomas for £9995.see here
thomas
a bobcat is about £12500. Not sure about a gehl
But there is also a guy in devon who is going to be selling some chinese imports. A larger machine, for about £7500
diggers
(Cheap diggers too!)
anyone have any advice? It is simply a yard machine for laoding crushed and sand etc, when the farm manitou is not available, and maybe the odd landscaping job.
