[Wanted] Kubota Ride on or Sub Compact with deck capable of mulching
Title says it all. Can collect withing reason. probably up to 10 years unless it has got a very good history. Have got a smaller petrol Alko Solo T20 105.6 HD v11 with 42" deck only a year old but it is just not big enough for what I need - can p/ex if that made sense to anyone..

I have a Kubota GR1600II, its not for sale but I can thoroughly recommend it although it is a 42" cutting deck too. When I bought mine second hand made no sense as they hold their value really well, did the same with the Kubota tractor too. GLWTSDS3 TDV6 HSE - Silver with Alpaca (old one) Gone

Been offered a Yanmar KE200H with a mid mounted 48" deck and turf tyres which has done just 400 hours. Anyone got some comments/knowledge about this compact tractor?
How do Iseki compare to Kubota and Yanmar??.

Iseki is the best.
Kubota have just been promoted longer in this country
I have sold tracors and demonstrated them. I now work for a large company that use both iseki and kubota with Iseki now being the preferred option. Kubota seem to be playing catch up after resting on their laurels for a bit. Even then they dont seem to come up with anything better.
Yanmar?
You only need to do a search on google and struggle to find where parts would come from. Engine through Barrus.
Remember they are imported, but you need the back up too for a product that is CE marked.
Iseki dealers all over the country with parts base in Ipswich and Belgium.

Many thanks for that Romadog - now checking out Iseki and looks good.
