DISCOUNTED TRACTOR SERVICING EXTENDED

TNS's Fakenham workshop

Thurlow Nunn Standen (TNS) have announced that farmers running mixed machinery fleets can now take advantage of discounted servicing and repairs through their expanded TNS Plus programme, following a £24,000 investment in multi-brand diagnostic technology.

TNS Plus servicing and repair programme was originally launched in November 2025 to provide discounted maintenance for older, out-of-warranty AGCO tractors and machinery. Following strong uptake from farmers across East Anglia, TNS say they have identified the opportunity to broaden the scheme to include all machinery makes and models.

The investment in multi-brand and multi-system diagnostic technology now enables them to offer discounted servicing and repairs across a range of manufacturers, including John Deere, New Holland, Claas, Kubota and other brands, in addition to AGCO equipment.

With the scheme, machinery aged 10 years or older qualifies for up to 30% off labour and parts, while equipment aged between six and 10 years receives 20% off labour and parts. The discounts apply regardless of manufacturer.

Adam Cuttridge, head of service and branch operations at TNS, said, “Farmers are under real financial pressure right now, and replacing machinery is simply not an option for many. Keeping older equipment running reliably and cost-effectively is what this programme is all about. It has been great to see so many new faces coming through the door as a result of this initiative. Around a third of those using the scheme are farmers we have not worked with before, or not for a long while. That tells us there is a real appetite for this kind of support, and extending it to all makes and models should open the door to even more."
