My new ride

[topkit]

I got this one late last year and have not had a chance to clean her up and paint her, But she has only had 2 owners from new and only done 5000 hours, I really rate these it has loads of pushing power and will go anywhere, The rear lever layout takes a bit of getting used to after a 3cx and Fermec but i love using it.

You got it in one there Paul my wife wants the muck heap moved and i don't wont to do it now but i guess i am for an easy life so i will do it - one day lol.

DAH, The machine is superb, i have only had an earlier black cab 3CX and also a fermec 860 i prefer the New Holland over both other machines, it's really well built and put together quite thoughtfully easy to grease up and easy to get to things under the bonnet nice cab layout pretty quiet to operate, the levers take a little getting used to, it has loads of pushing power and the back end has loads of reach, I really rate them.

How different are the levers David?

Looks good David. I suppose it is a more modern machine than the black cab 3CX and ought to be better?

I saw a tidy Case 580 on holiday that only looked a couple of years old!

I'm guessing it was refurbed - when was the last 580 produced?
