Tak or Cat ?

[cat943]

Hi all after getting the skid steer loader I have now turned my attention the brand and size of excavators I will be buying in the near future.
I have shorted my list to 3 machines of the 3-t range.
The excavators I have in mind are a tak TB23R and a tak TB128FR also the cat 303c.

So to my question what are the pros and cons of cat over tak? In some ways I would like to buy the cat as getting parts for both the skid and excavator from the one place has advantage of one stop shopping for parts n service what do you lot think ?

All you need to do is spend a day on the TB/FR series excavator to make up your mind. The abilities of the side to side boom are incredible and no doubt a money maker. I am on my second TB153FR. It will spoil you from owning anything else.
