We have plenty to be excited about over the coming months.

We are really looking forward to the launch of the all-new 457, with its powerful cutting-edge MTU engine and low

effort controls.

The recent JCB excavator event was a great success.

At the event, we received an order for two JS130’s, from Mr Adrian Abott, which will be delivered in the next few weeks. We hope to forge even more strong relationships with new and existing Holt JCB customers throughout the Autumn.

FLASHBACK FRIDAY! JCB’s first tractor, equipped with a backhoe and a front mounted loading bucket, was completed in 1953. The JCB MK1 set the standard pattern for the future designs of backhoe loaders.

This year, JCB celebrated the manufacture of their 1 millionth Backhoe Loader. This is a tremendous achievement and we at Holt JCB are extremly proud to be part of that piece of history.

After 60 years, JCB is the largest manufacturer of backhoes, and now, almost half the world’s backhoes are made by JCB. From the 1CX which has a

skid steer system that enables it to turn on its own axis, to the 2CX, 3CX and 4CX. JCB Backhoes are world leaders in their individual categories, with a vast array of attachments and options. This means you can build your machine around your own personal requirements.

JCB’s top of the range 3CX Eco and 4CX Eco are, quite simply, the world’s most efficient backhoe loaders for typical duty cycles.
