Way off topic but does anyone know of a reputable second hand
farm equipment dealer in Vic...??? Need a small tractor preferably with a front end loader and slasher.

'The Land' Paper would be a good start they list used gear for sale as
well as
clearing sales that are really good for a bargen.
good luck,
Pat.

Blue in deference to Pat I suggest a Victorian paper like the 'Weekly Times' or you may be transporting it a long way to the closer districts to
Melbourne. Try one of the dealers closer to where you want to operate Blue.
I like to play with bigger ones :-). Not had a slasher for twenty years I reckon. Loaders at 105 and 150 horsepower.

Thanks
John... I'm after a little Kubota or similar, something in the order of 20hp with a front end loader and a slasher. We have a 20acre block and it's in dire need of some maintenance. Mullock(sp?) heaps need to be pushed back into their holes(very slowly with a .25m bucket) and general
clearing of the fuel load around the fence line. I need something I can transport, if something goes bang I don't want to require a float to get it to a workshop and it needs to fit in a shipping container for security.
I've looked around
Ballarat and
Stawell(our property is between Avoca and
Stawell) but there isn't much about in this size which is why I threw it open...
A 150hp loader would certainly make short work of it but I'm pretty certain it wouldn't fit in a shipper...
