B7000/B7100: Do you feel the extra Power?

[cabu]

Hello,

does somebody has experience with the difference of a 2 cyl B7000 and a 3 cyl B7100/7001. Because there are more offers of the B7000 and the price is cheaper here in Germany, it would be interesting, if there is really a difference in the Power and the Torque of these two typ's. Would I feel the 2 extra HP or the extra Torque in real life, or is it in the end not really a big difference at all? And does one of the engines last longer and has less problems?

Thanx for an answer.

Carl

What kind of prices are those tractors making in Germany? I'm in Ireland and I'm looking at buying a B7100, the best value seems to be from Enland at the moment, around £3000, one dealer is selling Japanese import B7001s for around £2600, much cheaper than what I've seen from the continent. I know this doesn't answer your question but it might give you another option.

Hello,

here in Germany the price for a B7000 starts around 2500Euro and for the B7001 it starts around 3200Euro. Depending if a 3-Point-Hitch is allready installed and sometimes the tractor comes together with a tiller but only with the 2-Point-Hitch. At the moment it's a bit quite in the market and there are not so many offers. Mostly I check the price at ebay.de and search for Kubota in a price range of 2000 to 5000Euro. Most offers are something else but it's a good way to find all types of the tractors. A lot of these dealers are part time, they don't have a webpage. And a full time dealer is more expansive.


And I am still looking for an answer to the Power and Torque...
