Tractor Prices in Ireland

[[e-mail]]

Hey Lee,

A couple of weeks ago you had a query about JD pricing in Ireland.

I've just found my 2002 list prices. Any comparisons you want?

Here's a selection, and I'm using the price for the lowest spec of the model.

105hp Class

Case MX110 €64K
JD 6510SE €61K
JD 6520 €75K
Deutz Agrotron 115 €77K
Fendt 711 Vario €103K
MF6265 €64K
McC MC110 €59K
NH TS115 €49K
NH TM115 €56K
Valmet Hi-Tech 6750 €70K

More on request.

So in UK pounds that is:

Case MX110 £40K
JD 6510SE £38K
JD 6520 £47K
Deutz Agrotron 115 £48K
Fendt 711 Vario £65K
MF6265 £40K
McC MC110 £37K
NH TS115 £31K
NH TM115 £35K
Valmet Hi-Tech 6750 £44K

Well they are all obviously retail prices so we should be looking at another 15% at the very least, so that puts the prices at:

Case MX110 £34K
JD 6510SE £32K
JD 6520 £40K
Deutz Agrotron 115 £41K
Fendt 711 Vario £55K
MF6265 £34K
McC MC110 £31K
NH TS115 £26K
NH TM115 £30K
Valmet Hi-Tech 6750 £37K

I would still say that the irish prices are quite expensive as I am pretty sure you can get a Case MX135 for £35K which means the MX110 should be less than £30K.

But I have only removed 15% off the retail price which is probably not enough as Case for definate removed up to 40% for us in previous years. So it would probably work out that Irish prices we cheaper.

So now the question is how much would it cost to get it over the water on a boat?

Import duty cost
Transport prices
VAT rate

etc
etc

Interesting price differentiation there.

Over here except for Fendt being the highest priced and Valtra the lowest of the bunch. The others are pretty close to each other on pricing. The McC tractors are being sold at the same prices as the CIH counterparts. Deere is the one that is usually a tad bit more than the rest though,but not by much.

MX 110 incl air con retail £41,665, net price approx £28,500.

Cheers simon,

So really I should of removed about 30% instead of 15%. Thought I was being a bit over careful when I wrote it.

So that would put the fendt still at £45,500 which I would of thought is quite expensive really.

I think we can conclude from this that there would be very little point in buying in Ireland and shipping to England and vice versa, unless the euro/pound exchange rate got bette ror worse depending on which side you on.
