Kubota T1400h any good?

[amigauser]

I just found a local guy selling a Kubota T1400h hydro 14hp gas lawn tractor. He is asking $475 for it. Is this model any good? Is anyone familar with this model? I know Kubota builds great tractors (I own one) but I am not familiar with their lawn tractors. I think this is probably circa 1990 or so from what I have been able to find online.

Any input much appreciated.

I've owned one for a few years now. Very dependable and very easy to use with the hydro drive. Only drawbacks are parts seem to be hard to come by as they quit making these models a while back. For the price it sounds like a good deal.

Thanks for the info.

I checked it out yesterday and it is very used. Deck was noisy (bearings?) and the machine itself was rusty etc. I passed on the deal.
