Interesting how much the time ex hulls are going to be worth soon with the US $ being weak.

The maths are New R1 $310,000 = £155,000 GBP

Rebuild - £90,000 GBP
Hydraullics - £33,000 GBP
Total - £123,000 GBP
Therefore max time ex value - £32,000 GBP

But that gets you a 12 year old 2200 hr machine, it must be worth 25% less, £38,750, than a new machine therefore the hull value should be minus £6750! I think the people asking 40k for a timex are being a bit unrealistic!
