Construction and agricultural machinery holds its value well, which is exactly why the second-hand auction market for it is so active across Europe. Typical lots are excavators, wheel loaders, tractors, trailers and attachments coming off rental fleets, contractor disposals or farm retirements. Hours on the clock, service history and the availability of parts for the specific model matter far more than cosmetic condition.
