Planning on buying a Chinese tractor.

IMO, you will want to have it shipped directly there vs. coming to the US first as you can then avoid the whole Tier 4 system and get a simpler system with less parts to break.

Yes. It will be shipped directly to Africa. No need for tier 4 stuffs

In Africa thereç—´ DHL which is the European equivalence of Fdex. Theyæ±*e all over Africa

Well, are there any dealers in that area for tractors? Have you checked local prices on tractors?

Maybe ask the people in Africa what they recommend. A nice shiny Deere would look nice roaming around Africa!

I'll bet it would cost HUGE BUCKS to buy "a nice shiny Deere" for delivery to Africa.

They do sell brand new tractors in Africa, I'm quit sure JD has a large presens om africa

 

[ThePas]

Yes, it does.

 

[ThePas]

Yes, they do. But, their prices are quite high.

So, this tractor is only for hobby or does down time being a problem?

I have looked at tractors for sale at Alibaba and other sites, find it very difficult to understand how this marked works, a lot of brands, a lot of tractors that look identical but who makes them?

There are no real webpages, no info on how they support after sales, just a few lines of bad English and often a lot of bragging about CE and ISO certification which if find hard to believe are more than pure lie.

If you buy a Massey you have a large organisation behind the product, buy direct from China and all you have is a Mr Lee.

But you have Lovol/Foton, you might take direct contact with them to hear if they have any support in the country where you shall use the tractor.
