Glad you enjoyed it Colin - I want to see this running in a big field of wheat on a sunny evening... ☀️👍🙂

Shame it was such a dull day weather-wise, but fingers crossed for some sunshine soon!

Thanks Christopher. 👌

The X9 I told you about! 👌🙂

Hi there - this combine belongs to a farming partnership and a new farm has joined leading to the X9 coming aboard. Hope this helps.

My take on it is that not many new combines are purchased out right, most are sold via a lease agreement so effectively the farmer is paying the interest on the purchase price for a number of years. Apparently the deprication would be greater than the lease payment so out right purchasing doesn't stack up unless you buy a second hand machine , maintain it yourself and keep it a long time.

"While Case IH, Claas and New Holland have hit the £750,000 mark or thereabouts with their flagship models, the John Deere X9 1000 on tracks with a 12.2m HDX header and both wheeled and tracked versions of the X9 1100 with a 13.7m header carry a list price of more than a million pounds." £1,000,000+ for the X9 1100 👍

You would need to talk to a dealer in the UK, but lots is my guess!! 👍
