The new JCB 3CX / 4CX BHL have been revamped and launched at Bauma on 19th April.Newly inroduced features include a 3 hydraulic pump system resulting in up to 16% fuel consumption changes.Also a beefed up radiator grille and counterweight give the machine a rugged look.A new roof pod, 4 adjustable front lights and improved bonnet lift add to the improvements.

lets hope the build quality and reliability are up to snuff ,as they are losing it

As per usual it does look "the bee's knee's" and as JCB's principle product a lot of time should of been spent ensuring this is THE NO1 backhoe loader available.
Thanks for posting David I do hope you manage to give JCB some feedback from some of the comments posted on this site as I am a real JCB fan and any criticism of product quality that I hear does greatly concern me, I don't wish to see this great British manufacturer dis-appear as many other companies have done so.
Thanks.

Im with you on this one jeremy!

Although i dont think the JS's are as bad as people say they are from what ive found! I dont like to here they are arent the machines they used to be! I spent/spend many hours over my life watching JCB's! They are still up there with my favourite manufacturers and i always end up getting more photo's of the JCB stands at shows over other manufacturers! Its such a shame that they spend ridiculous amounts of money on redesigning a new logo(even though the old one didnt need changing) instead of making the machines better!! From the limited experience's ive had on backhoes i have to say that the newer machines are far superior on front end power!

COME ON JCB SORT YOUR MACHINES OUT!!!! Your a great firm dont let it go to waste!

Jeremy/Joe, I couldn't have put that better myself! I am though confident in JCB's ability to not only survive but prosper

Got to agree completely there. JCB is one of the last truly British institutions, it cannot be allowed to fail. We've seen the demise of Priestman and Hymac, along with several British Truck makers, Rover cars, British Leyland, to name but a few. Land Rover, Jaguar etc are in foreign hands. Please Sir Anthony, we want to see JCB succeed and continue for another 55 years at least!

Looks a lovely machine, I have always liked the 3cx and i cant wait to get on one of these to see how they perform.
Nice to see you guys supporting Jcb and their products.
