hi from downunder
i have gleaned much valuable info from this forum,as well as talking to some locals in the area my new property is(Tasmania) and it seems that i will be better off with a dozer/excavator combo for my purposes(dam building,roads,house pad,tree clearing,drainage....mostly in steep clay)
i have stumbled on a Fiat 70CI that is for sale locally(a bonus for an island state ) and wonder what opinions are held about this model/make
i have done a search but found nothing specific
bare in mind i am in the lower(pretty close to the bottom i'd say) end of the market due to finances and have a choice of a newer smaller machine eg komatsu/mitsubishi 3-4 ton or an older bigger machine up to say 10-12 ton(may need to transport it in the back of a rigid truck at some stage)
any info/advice greatly appreciated(deas575 and squizzy jump right in:notworthy )
cheers fellas
