Hi Tone,
Not had anything to do with New Holland or formerly Kobelco excavators oh I just remembered I did do a few days on Phil Hills import Kobelco which was a good little machine and looked like brand new despite having over 6000 hrs on the clock!!

Re: CAT Excavators
Hi all,
Here are some more Cat Excavators that were at work on the Whiddon Down improvement works in Devon a year or so ago, John Jones was the principal earthmoving contractor but some machines were hired in from Coles plant & John Craxford.
