It sounds like you have your mind made up. However I'll make one last attempt to persuade you away from a compact tractor to a full sized backhoe/skip loader (I don't care if it's a JCB, Deere, Case etc...). I use mine to maintain a private road, about 3000' in length. I spread a few tri-axle loads of recycled asphalt a year, and have done a few times where I had 10 to 13 loads delivered in a day. I've used it to replace a number of culverts, move tons of riprap/gabion stone, dig large stumps, move fallen trees etc... at no time have I needed more. I do wish I had had more reach on the hoe. I have a little time on a neighbours Kioti compact with backhoe, there is no comparison. Before buying mine, I spent
years looking. I looked at new compact tractors (Kioti, LS etc), I looked at used Kubota L48 and M59, I looked at used full size Case/Cat/Deere. One of the first specs I would look at is weight, even the largest Kubota was 4000 to 5000 lbs less than the smallest full size backhoe. There's a reason that the construction equipment is so much heavier. To me I could never justify the "newness" of a compact vs buying a used full size, regardless of brand of either. FWIW I spent half of what you are looking to spend 5 years ago for a machine with 3200 hours on it.
Here are some pictures of the culvert replacement and spreading the recycled asphalt:
The dump truck driver didn't do a great job (starting on a hill) and dumped piles instead of spreading it. I did wish I had a grader that day instead of the backhoe, but using an improvised drag I was able to get it surprising flat.
Good luck with the purchase.
