Get the particulars for this business by calling Allan on 021 0819 3787 or by calling our toll free number 0800 800 286. Extra machinery for sale are detailed below:

Toyota Hiace - Additional $5,500

On offer is a 1996 Toyota Hiace flat deck dropside truck running on a 2.8-litre diesel engine (non-turbo) with 258,000 km on the speedometer. The truck is sign written and is in a nice condition for its age. The current owner is the only NZ owner of the vehicle bought in 2002. The motor has been looked after and starts and runs great. A new radiator, starter motor, alternator, glow plugs, have been installed within the last two years.

Walker Ride-On Mower - Additional $12,000

Also for sale is a December 2006 Walker ride-on mower that has clocked in 2680 hours currently. It has a 42-inch catching only deck, with an upsized clippings bin on the rear. A brand new 22.5 horsepower carburettor motor was installed in November 2019 valued at $5,500 and with 2500 hrs. New gearboxes on deck were installed two years ago ($3,000), plus a reconditioned 10.5-inch blower on March 2020 and a second spare blower as well. The mower is in a really good condition but some paint is a bit worn in places. On average, it gets used about 200 hours a year and is not used on rough jobs. A brand new equivalent is close to $30,000, so this is already a great deal.

Honda Self-Propelled Rotary Mower - Additional $1,300

Lastly, a Honda self-propelled 21-inch mower purchased in August 2019 for $1,750 at the Stihl shop in Palmerston North. It is equipped with a Lexan body and a 190cc Honda engine. It has been hardly used since it was bought, just 3 lawns per fortnight.
