Equipment Type: Mini Excavator
Volvo EC 25 2.5 ton Digger Excavator 2003 with 3 buckets not a quick hitch. I have owned this machhine for 7 or 8 years. I have built 2 self build houses using it and its been a great strong machine. In my ownership its been very well looked after and had the following new waterpump, new tracks in last 3 months, new idlers, new sprockets, various new hoses, radiator, ram seals, one new ramheater plugs and in the last two weeks 4 new drive hoses. It starts well, and runs well.
Its smokey for a few seconds on start up but soon clears and runs all day with no issues and uses very little fuel. All the glass is there and not broken, Its got good lights at the front and everything apart from the heater works, It never has and has never bothered me . Its a very simple machine with few electrics and is a very easy machine to work on and fix with spares easy to get hold of and not expensive. As you can see its been painted underside recently as it was looking shabby. Its a 2003 machine, it has been painted a few times in my ownership as i like it to look decent.
It has two speed tracking and is fairly tight for its age. Its a very strong little machine with good hydraulics. The machine has sat about since last year when we finished my sons house. I dont see me needing it for a very long time and have limited storage to its time to let it go its mainly been kept inside. Its ideal for towing and, for a self build or small holding etc.
I can send you a video of it starting, running, operating to whatsapp. All in all its a good machine. Its based in East Ayrshire Scotland. This is a cash sale with no VAT. I will accept cash or bank transfer but funds must be cleared before the machine leaves me and a non refundable deposit of £500 will hold the machine.
It has only one key. The top half is the original yellow paint. Bad bits: the door is rusted at the bottom, slight leak form the ram on the dipper arm, couuld do with a new battery as it needed charged after sitting for a few months. Seat is ripped but comfy and usable. Ive done 12 hour days in this digger doing foundations, sceptic tanks etc and it just keeps going, no hassle to it at all.
Disclaimer: the machine is sold as seen. Im happy to show anyone who is serious the machine working, lifting, digging, tracking etc I have no transport to deliver but can load it for you no problem. There are no documents with the machine. Please come and see the machine. Ive described it as best i can but these are my thoughts on its condition and you should make up your own mind.
I have set a realistic starting price and reserve. Im not in a rush to let this machine go so i wont take any low offers and will not part exchange. The machine is for sale not swap etc. Please contact me before you buy the item
