Very interesting. Lots of bidding but Reserve not met at this point in time.
We could run a "book" (betting) on 1. the reserve price and 2. what we recokon it will go for.
Guess that wouldn't be fair to the prospective bidders, eh. :oops:

Looks like you are right, its gone. Think it was the wrong place for that tractor anyway. We have a number of auctions of vintage tractors around the country which would get the best price for it.

My guess-timate was based on the fact that one like it went for around that figure about two years ago. The Super Dexta in our village has been valued at at least double my figure! :shock:

This 4 x 4 Dexta is back on Ebay again!

It is quite intriguing, the fact that it was removed and is now back on once again, perhaps it isn't quite what it seems?

4WD Dexta

Post by MikeR »

interested in what you say about the super dexta - don't know if anyone else noticed but there are two for sale in the latest T & M, September edition one from an english dealer asking£18K - which in last months edition as an "original roadless Super dexta claimed to be 1 of 23" although this month it just says 4wd - so who knows what it actually is and ano Super dexta in holland restored but no price indicated.
There was a 4wd a few months back with a cab in Scotland looked very original - no price indicated - i can but dream!
I did not think it was established how may super dextas had been made?

So there you go if you have been saving your pocket money or want a quick divorce you are spoilt for choice !!

Think I would need to see the original Roadless plate on the axle. From that number, the Roadless people who still have the records can tell you if the tractor is original. Dave Pantry dated and made an offer for the one in our village. Might have been in fun as the owner will not sell but it gave him a value and I have no reason to doubt his word.

This tractor failed to reach its reserve price, with a bid of £18,600 and is back on E-bay for a third time!
