Have you had any problems with the Kubota or John Deere compact farm tractors?
John Deere have been around, as the gentleman above says for years, if you spread a little love and attention on them, they will reward you with many years of hard work, however the Kubota thats another matter, if your sitting comfy I shall begin. We bought one for the sports club I was head groundsman at, the comittee bought it as it was cheap, yea right cheap, but when it went wrong it cost the earth, was very hard to start on cold mornings, very prone to fuel flooding and if you had to get a replacement part, they were not in stock and when you did get the part, it cost with the fitting a kings ransom, we sold it part exchange for the John Deere, the rep him self delivering it a very nice man, when they sold up before the property developers moved in the John Deere was sold to an old mate of mine and he still uses it, that was over twelve years ago, "Jonny" must be nearly twenty years old now.
