Advice needed

[Malvern Michael]

I have decided to buy a new mini digger to replace my existing JCB 801.4 from circa 1997, I have short listed a kubota u17-3a 0r a bobcat e19.
i would very much appreciate your advice on either machine, my use is only on my own land for digging and maintaining ponds and drainage ditches
i haven’t demo’d either machine yet due to lockdown and I don’t have a local dealer for either machine here in Malvern
also if anyone fancies my JCB pm me for details
thanks
Michael
