Always had John Deere until a couple of months ago and we got our first Fendt 714 G6 to replace a JD6135r. Was initially very hesitant after being a loyal JD fan for years but after having the Fendt, wouldn’t go back to JD now mate. Sure once you try it you’ll say the same. Tried pricing a new JD up with all the specs of the Fendt and was actually going to cost more. They seem more complicated coming from JD but they are actually a lot simpler and user friendly to drive when you get the hang of it. Look forward to your video when you get to demo it. 👍🏼
We have 2021 fendt 516 with 6000 hours now Its been really really reliable and good And its engine is super smooth. Im on the new 724 gen 6 profiplus but once in a while i drive that 516 and it has loads of power for its size and it turns very sharp
@@OllysFarmLtd yap. And i compared it last year with jd 6r 150 (brand new) 516 pulled the trailer 19kph up the hill and 6r 150 12kph. Same day, same hill same trailer, same muck. And both 50kph I was really surprised that jd was so bad and it costs a lot more than 516 fendt. You can get 720 fendt for the same amount as jd 6r 150 Fendts have mastered the cvt box Love older jd but newer arent that great
Have you tried Kramer? I was a Manitou man until I tried the Kramer. Much smoother hydrostatic than the Manitou. That's why Manitou re-introduced a powershift on the 741 - people didn't like their hydrostatic drive. I have 2 516's and 3 724's so I like Fendt's. But I think the new JD 6R150 might just pip the 516 now. Seems to have a little more power. Fendts are very durable. 4 of mine are over 10,000 hours but still look very good.
The last time i watched 1of ur video i think it was months ago u were definitely buying the manitou then ......now ur definitely buying again......are u really??? Me thinks not
As much as the 5s 135 is a nice tractor the only problem with it is is that because it has a drop nose it means they are less reliable because the engine is squashed in a tight place. Nice to see and new video and I think the idea of possibly getting a 724 fend is a good route to go down.
You go through machines like my bro and cars.
Both look great machines for the farm. Keep up the great work Olly
Good to see you back on a video. 🙂👍
At last Olly your thinking of purchasing and not just dreaming , looking forward to seeing the Manitou on the farm .
Belle vidéo Olly's Farm 👍🚜🚨
Awesome, Fendt one looks great in newer ones now. Manitou looks like a good buy as well.

Nice, the sharp turning on the 516 sounds perfect for on the round baler 👌

Love older jd but newer arent that great
If you by a KV plough buy the wide clearance one they are fantastic for ploughing the headlands dont choke up with weeds so easily
Thanks will definitely look at the kvernland although I do like the 153 Kuhn for contractors 👌
Good luck with the Fendt hope it's better than the one we had there won't be another one on this farm give me a New Holland anytime .
Why? Germans are the best
@bekabeka71 lol not the heap of crap we had on demo your welcome to em
What about the fend 600 series?

Be awesome to see some new equipment on the farm
Nice 👍👍👍
Nice
ok, so if it is new and i appreciate 6.5 hrs is nothing really, but how/who has clocked up a days work in it?
Yes 👍 yes. 👏 emergency trying to Maddie.
516 is top tractor Ollie I drove one for a week not long ago and I have high praise on them, it can do a good amount of work surprise people 👌🏻
you will be happy with you're new purshases
The last time i watched 1of ur video i think it was months ago u were definitely buying the manitou then ......now ur definitely buying again......are u really??? Me thinks not
Hey Olly what’s the warranty on the manitou?
You can get 3 years 3000 warranty or the maniplus which gives you 6 years 6000 hours, our 630 has been very reliable 👌

Where did you get that shirt from you had on at the dealership?
Jack Wills store
@@OllysFarmLtd cheers
Something else subsidies are paying for
Have you got married Olly?
Merlo walk all over that manitou
You sure? Merlo equivalent TF35.7 runs a 125litre hyd pump, this Manitou is 170Litre
Black fendt ?
Wait until the Fendt 6 series comes available ....
I'd nearly buy a 7s Massy Ferguson before a fendt
Jcb be better
Manitou looks brilliant 👍 fendt not as good as John Deere though
The 635 is a beast, one thing John Deere is simple and easy to operate Fendt more owner operator 👌
The John Deere 6200 looks very smart, the fendt would probably be more comfortable, have more power,etc
