A major ‘on-site‘ machinery dispersal sale (auction) was held on behalf of Coates Contracting at Manor Farm, Kings Lynn, Norfolk (England) recently – on Wednesday, December 6.
The auction comprised of tractors, a telescopic loader and a whole brace of machinery – including a significant haul of root-crop equipment.
We’ve already reported on how the tractors and the lone telescopic handler – a JCB – fared at the sale.
