Value ? ? ?

[Cockshutt Mike]

I need some opinions on value of a tractor. I know it's hard to put a value on something your not looking at so i'll try to describe it the best i can. It's a Kubota 7300 3 cylinder diesel 4 wheel drive with loader & bucket, belly mower, and 3 point rototiller. One owner with little over 600 hours. New tires on front, good 80% tires on back. Runs good, has been well serviced, and is in nice condition. Only thing i can find wrong is seat cushions (seat) need replaced, rear flashers not working, contol lever for loader has a lot of play, and alternator not charging over half throttle. I don't see any fluid leaks and rototiller looks like its hardly been used. Overall good looking tractor. The guy bought it brand new about 9 years ago and paid over 16,000 and feels it's worth around 8,000. I don't know anything about Kubota and looking for opinions, so that's why i'm here asking, i know there is a lot of help and good opinions on this forum. Thanks in advance.

Most of us don't know anything about Kubotas- So what HP is it? Just on the basis of cost new vs. present price, sounds like a good deal.

Here in ontario it seems kubotas hold there value pretty good.The engines are well built and they are generally a easy machine to service. Most implements are available but are usually on the pricey side but are built well. The price you are giving seems reasonable but you could negotiate because of the small problems. I have one and it's lasted well for 5years with no problems at all.

Mike,

You might want to go to tractorhouse dot com and see if your particular model is listed for sale. Might give you some idea of going prices.

You must be kidding us, all that like new for 8K what a deal. Around here I know plenty of people that have them and think they are the best in that size there is.
