Sounds like a fair price. A couple of things that you might want to check out. Does the parking brake hold the tractor? If not it could be adjustment, but more likely it will be a chewed up brake band. The band is located inside the tranmission requiring the whole tranny cover to be removed. It is a fair job to replace.
Another thing to check is the brakes. They are hydraulic brakes and while they work well when they are in good shape, they are spendy and a pain to work on. Check for leaks. There are two small cylinders and an equalizer valve located ahead of the steering wheel underneath where the battery sits. All in all, a very fuel efficient and handy tractor. Quick hydraulics, nice heavy 3 point and nice hydrostatic steering. The engine is basically the same as the six cylinder 310 german diesel, except missing two cylinders.
