    Rea Valley machinery sale racks up £2m

    Following the closure of Rea Valley Tractors, BPI has completed a series of machinery auctions – the first in a series of asset sales. The company moved assets to its operating centre in York, working with Johnsons Haulage, where each item was valeted, inspected and appraised, before being sold and delivered to buyers both in the UK and abroad.

    Highlights from the sale included:

    • 2022 John Deere 8RX 410 Four Tracked Tractor – sold for £155,000
    • 2024 Valtra Q305 4WD Tractor – sold for £127,000
    • 2023 New Holland T7.270 4WD Tractor – sold for £111,000
    • 2024 JCB 542-70 Telehandler – sold for £85,000
    • 2023 Kuhn Espro 4000R Trailed Pneumatic Seed Drill – sold for £53,000

    Nathan Burnham, associate director at BPI, commented: “The scale of this project reflects both the importance and the resilience of the agricultural industry. Despite challenging trading conditions, there remains huge demand for quality machinery — and sales of this size offer buyers rare access to premium equipment at realistic prices. It’s been a significant undertaking for our team, but one that has demonstrated the strength of our process and our buyer network.”

    Further assets will be sold in upcoming sales, also organised by BPI.
