The sale got underway before the special dispersal sale of potato and tillage equipment which saw 1,960 bidders registered.
The demand for clean well-cared-for equipment was the case on the day, with such lots commanding strong prices regardless of age or hours. The second-highest priced lot was a JCB 531-70 telehandler which sold for €20,000 followed by a Hitachi 13t digger which sold at €18,750, plus VAT. A 2006 Merlo P4014 telehandler sold at €17,500 plus VAT; a 1989 Ford 6810 series III sold for €10,350; a Eurospec low loader sold at €10,500; a 2015 McHale C460 straw blower sold at €10,000 plus VAT; a 2008 Chieftain 14T dump trailer sold at €8,000 plus VAT; and a Twose 6m ring roller sold at €7,600 plus VAT; and an Amazone one-pass seed drill sold at €7,350 plus VAT.
