Bobcat introduces used equipment service

Reflecting the high level of demand for new machinery and the ongoing supply chain delays and difficulties, Bobcat has launched a service enabling customers to source approved used models. 

The Bobcat Certified pre-owned programme has been launched first in the UK and Ireland, France and Germany, with machines available from the manufacturer’s dealers.

The scheme will also be rolled out in Italy, Spain and Sweden later this year. 

Machines have to meet a series of preset criteria to be included in the initiative and are updated to adhere to Bobcat’s latest quality and safety standards, including servicing with genuine parts, oil checks, appropriate software upgrades and a 12-month/1,000-hour manufacturer’s warranty as standard. 

It’s an interesting move and one that suggests that the strength of demand for machinery is not likely to diminish soon.
