??? on TU 205

[wendelin]

In my area their is a TU205 for sale. He says that it is 4x4 25hp and has power steering. It was built in 1990 with a little over a 1,000 hours on it. What is a resaonable price for it?
Can anyone tell me more about these tractors? Is Iseki an ok tractor? should I stay away from it? Can I get part for it? Is their any place where I can get information on it? I have done some research on Yanmars.
I will probably add a loader sometime, mower and a tiller.
thanks for all your help

The TU is a cool looking tractor. It kind of falls through the cracks when it comes to a close US tractor. It is not a good platform for a loader. It's frame is built for comfort more than strength.The older and newer models are better. Iseki is as good a tractor as any of them. The older and newer Isekis have manuals and information available better than the TU of that year group. I personally have been dealing in greys for several years and my tractor at home is an Iseki TA215. I wouldn't trade it for anymodel or brand I have had to date.

I have a TU1700f. It's a very good tractor and has done everything I've asked from it. I think you'll like Iseki. There are parts suppliers and dealers right here on TBN.
