Hello Cherokee, the most common tractors in sweden is Volvo, but are you a "modern" farmer is Valtra,Case, Fendt and New Holland. The "Volvo" was bought by Valmet in early 90:s. The population in Sweden is only 9 milj people if you campares with US ( 318 Milj ). Sadly, the nr of farmers get less and less. Its cheaper to import meat, food etc from other countries. Example, 1 st US Gallon of Diesel ( 3,79 Liters ) cost almost 8 $ in Sweden. The tax for a worker is 33 %. Is better for all countries to export than import. Long answer..................-sorry. Best regards Elsson.

I have a 2400H, strong little tractor, does what I need so far, and only one part needed, the clutch safety switch had a bit of water in it and froze open.
My dealer (Daves Tractors, in Red Bluff, California) had a replacement in the mail the same day, along with a free oil filter, and a fuel and air filter.
Maximum kudos to Dave, a True Gentleman and a great dealer!
I live in the middle of three dealers, all about 3 hours away...
The local Mahindra dealer will work on Branson, but not warranty work.

I have needed a few parts in the 7 years I have owned mine. The company operates on the dealer centered customer support theme. The support from the field service agent was superb, especially handling a warranty replacement. Problem was the AC idler pulley. There is a warehouse about 350 miles distant that stocks a lot of parts. I blew out a door on my cab mowing and had a new one within the week. Had 7 in stock.
Only part I had to wait on was an upgrade kit for my AC idler pulley. Since the pulley is used on the cabs only, it had little distribution feedback and took awhile for them to realize they needed larger bearings. So when the warranty replacement failed, I ordered the upgrade with the stronger bearing. Had everything I needed at my supplying dealer but a little spring clip which they had to order from Korea. That delayed the parts for about a week. Funny, After I got the parts I didn't need the clip as I used the old one.
Mine is built like a tank also. I took it over all the popular colors in the area and would do it again. The tractor is built to slop around in the rice fields of Korea so everything is protected and sturdy.
Kukje is the Korean manufacturer and Branson is a US brand they build. Don't know of your supply chain in your area. Surely one has to consider that. Even with large parts like the door I needed, a phone call, credit card, and UPS was all I needed.
