Price Check Newbie needs help pricing 2004 L3710

[muskego]

Hi everyone! Love the site. First time tractor buyer. I have opportunity to buy 2004 Kubota L3710 with 900hrs. Hydro trans. Turf tires. Kubota Front loader. No quick attach.

Tractor has been used / not babied. Seat is torn. Rusty bucket. But runs and operates as it should. Only visible leak was small oil, but it looks like its coming from drain plug.

What would be a good price for this used tractor?

PLEASE HELP! Thanks a lot!

Also, I'm confused with all the models of Kubota? What do they all mean? For example, what is difference in L3710 and L3800???

I suggest you use the following sites on pricing: machinefiner.com, tractorhouse.com and fastline.com. Then take some off.

On differences I suggest you use the site: Tractordata.com is an excellent reference for tractor specs.

Is $12,000 a fair price? Or is this too much?

Just guessing here, but you may be looking at a unit that was used commercially (i.e. landscaper, nursery, contractor, etc.) or one used as a chore tractor on a large farm... places where no one would give a second thought to how it looks as long as it runs. Did they maintain it? Who knows.

Has it been lubed? Oil and filters changed? Hydraulics all OK? Tires? 3pt operation? Engine smoke? FEL lifts/curls OK? Evidence of repairs?

It was not manufactured in 2004. The L3710 was a first generation "Grand L" model made from 1998 to 2003. May have been bought in '04.

Kubota and others bring out new models every few years, and they offer, probably 25 or more sizes and hp variations in their lineup.
