I would be careful, I bought a Fendt 724 from them in early 2020. Was supposed to have 3500hrs, looked good and had new tires, had a bunch of bells and whistles I hadn’t been looking for but were nice and the price was not bad.

After we had used it for about a week we noticed that it was bucking and jerking, over the next hour that got worse. We had our mechanic dig into it and found that the brakes for the front axle were seized up, which he thought was weird so he dug deeper yet and found that there was a service record for that tractor in England in 2018 with 8600hrs on already at that point.

When I brought that up to Bas in connection with the issues I offered to sort out the issues myself if he paid back the difference in going market rate for a 3500hr tractor and an 8600hr tractor, about $50k. He sent a check returning all $109,000 right away and once it cleared he sent a truck.

I guess what I’m saying is that he seemed decent to deal with, even when the deal got sour but he also was mixed up with a tractor that had the hour meter messed with.


Good to hear, neighbor bought a CIH Maxxum from them shortly after they opened. It looked good but found out it must have rolled the hour meter atleast once if not twice. I know he had a lot of issues with it but I'm not sure if he tried to get anything out of them or not. I know he had nothing good to say about them for a while.
