Monday, August 5, saw the latest monthly Cambridge Machinery Sales auction take place at Cheffins Auctioneers’ sale grounds in Sutton, Cambridge (England).
This report focuses on some of the Ford and blue-liveried New Holland tractors that went ‘under the hammer’ – from a tidy-looking 5000 right the way up to a 2015 T8.350 (a ‘blue’ beast with Case IH Magnum blood pulsing through its veins).
In accompanying articles, we look at a variety of other brands – to see how they fared under the hammer.
Tim Scrivener was at the auction for AgriLand to take these photographs and to note the key prices. All of the pictures in this report are from Monday’s auction.
All (hammer/sale) prices were subject to a ‘buyer’s premium’ of 2%.
All (hammer/sale) prices were also subject to VAT at the local rate (i.e. VAT must be added to all of the prices in the captions below).
Any statement of recorded hours may simply be a reflection of what was visible on the tractor’s odometer or, if that wasn’t available, what was claimed in the auction catalogue.
