The second-hand combine market looked in a healthy state on Tuesday evening when three TX32 New Holland machines from MJ and J McLarens Cronan Farm, Coupar Angus, Perth went under the hammer in one go. United Auctions auctioneer Pat Lawson cant recall a similar one-off sale in his 46-year career and was pleased with the bidding, which he said was a bit above trade-in value. The combines were 11 seasons old and attracted eight to nine buyers, who fought it out to pay a top price of £20,100, and £19,400 and £19,200 for the other two. All three combines went to farmers in Scotland.
