What the 720 Vario is used for
The 720 Vario was designed as a versatile higher-power farm tractor, suited to the broad range of duties expected on mixed and arable businesses. Its 6.1 L six-cylinder diesel, Vario CVT and electronically controlled rear linkage give it the specification for demanding mounted and general field work.
Today, examples are generally bought as working used tractors, not vintage restorations. They suit operators who want a capable 700 Vario, but a thorough inspection of its transmission, hydraulics and electronic controls is important before purchase.
Why the Fendt 720 Vario stands out
The 720 Vario stands out in Britain as a particularly popular 700 Vario model, offering about 200 hp from a 6.1 L Deutz six-cylinder diesel. Enthusiasts appreciate its blend of power and economy, plus the smooth Vario CVT. Its limitation is not age-related nostalgia but modern complexity: condition, diagnostics and documented maintenance matter greatly.
Buying a used Fendt 720 Vario
Inspect the six-cylinder Deutz diesel for smooth starting, even running, smoke and any oil-pressure concerns. Drive the tractor long enough to assess Vario transmission response, test the electronically controlled rear linkage and hydraulics, and check the brakes. Examine bonnet, panels and chassis for corrosion or accident damage, and match serial and registration details to the documents. Have it inspected if uncertain. Confirm figures and originality against TractorData.com and club records; values vary by condition, so check current listings rather than a fixed price.
