SOTA Tractors Reviews 2023
“Just sending a huge thank you for the very professional service we received when we purchased our Kubota tractor and implements recently. Jim was outstanding, not a pushy salesman, just a down to earth genuine guy. You certainly are a great asset for Sota. Dedicated staff like you are very hard to come by nowadays.
Dave was fantastic. His knowledge of tractors is amazing. We had a few laughs with our demo but never made to feel stupid when mistakes were made by us. Again, many thanks to all. Your service was outstanding. Would certainly recommend Sota Tractors to anyone.”

“Just want to say thank you to Martin and Tony for helping me out with fixing a problem of my own making. A huge relief for me to get the tractor going again rather than having it sit in the paddock over the weekend. This is the difference between SOTA and the others, the feeling that you’re not on your own once the sale is done.
Also, a big thanks to Jim for helping me out with some other problems during the week. It’s pretty clear that the customer is the weakest link in this chain.
Much appreciated.”

“On moving to our property in Woodstock QLD three years ago, part of the machinery inventory was a 10-year-old Apollo Tractor…
“My respect for this machine grew and grew. Now I needed some parts for service and repair due to my handling of this machine, so I contacted Sota tractors Brisbane – their number was on the machine luckily.
Tony took my call. Wow, the after-sales service was fantastic !! This machine was 10 years old and had come here before my time, second hand.
Nothing was too much trouble. Every time I call – the same fantastic service.”

Apollo 554C – 6 years on.
When the 554C first arrived, I was pretty damn excited. The plans I had, the list I had, was pretty long (and perhaps ambitious?). Nonetheless, the 554C continues to fire up and is eager for work after 6 years.
Where I live is a 40 acre primarily bush block, and prior to the 554C arriving, I’d managed to scrape out a 25meter clearance from the house (as per fire regulations) using little more than brush cutters and push lawn mowers, and frankly it wasn’t anywhere near enough. Within the first week, I’d carved out between 80m and 100m clearance around the primary house site, clearing combinations of open grass, and thick shrubs and bushes, and have been able to maintain this easily ever since.
Slashing was the go-to operation for most of the initial work, while using the FEL to push, pickup and the stick rake to scrape into piles vegetation to be cleared and burned was excellent.
I’ve carved out proper drainage along the driveway, re-crowning the top, resurfacing and grading the drive with stones and creating deep channels for water run-off using the 6ft grader blade.
I’ve managed to build a continuous track from the front gate to the back gate for fire access (something we’d never had), and branch off to all corners of the property, well enough for the family sedan to get from one side to the other without leaving fenders and front spoilers behind.
Each season’s fire preparation and cleanup of fallen sticks in the more forested areas, was brilliant with the stick rake, and digging out new garden areas for the gardeners within the family has been really easy with the FEL and blade.
Helping build the neighbour’s shed using the auger for post holes, and general carrying stuff around was a lifesaver for them (I must get around to building my own some time…), and the weekly bin run to the front gate is still a bit of fun.
Maintenance-wise, I’ve certainly been less diligent than I’d intended to be. Re-greasing, oil changes, and filter changes have been reasonably regular. I’ve had to have a front tire repaired (ran over a sharp stump), recharge the battery after a long winter, and repair the back window (don’t have this open when lifting the auger!). I’ve had great advice and after-sales service for parts from the team at SOTA in VIC, even 6 years on. And still, the 554C has been as reliable, and as enjoyable as day 1 in starting up, and getting work done.
Thanks for your continued support of me and the 554C!
Cheers! Corey.

“I purchased my refurbished Kubota from the team at Sota about three years ago. Since then l couldn’t be happier. Everything from the sales process, the quality/reliability of the unit and their aftersales team have exceeded my expectations.
I had my first fault with it last weekend, at a time when l really needed the unit to work. I called the team at Sota Monday worried l would be waiting weeks, but, the issue and a full service was completed by Wednesday. Anthony did a great job on site, he knew the product and what he was doing. In addition to that l got the impression he treated my unit as if it were his own.
Would not hesitate to recommend the team at Sota to anyone looking for a Agri solution for their property. They are real people who make owning a tractor easy. Thank you,

SOTA Tractors Reviews 2020
“Hi Tony,
I just wanted to say thank you very much for my Apollo 554 Tractor and Del Morino 214 Flail Mower. It’s the perfect combination for my 100 acres of land and for keeping things tidy for the B&B.
I’ve struggled with a compact tractor for the past 3 years and now that I have a machine that is more than capable of doing the job with ease, it puts a smile on my face every time I walk outside and see my new tractor.
Having run Fergys and Deutz tractors on the family farm for many years & fronted the build quality of various production builds for the government throughout my working career, I can honestly say that my first impressions of the build quality of the 554 are second to none. It’s an old school, honest, tough machine! I would also like to mention that some of the standard features on the 554 are in fact optional extras on the more expensive brand tractors.
I’ve run the flail mower over grass that I’ve been mowing with the compact tractor, finishing mower and as you said Tony, it does the job as good as the finishing mower.
I’ve also run the flail mower over an area that hasn’t been touched for quite some time. The 554, in low range, managed it with ease and the flail mower mulched the waist grass up beautifully.
Finally, I would like to mention that, while researching the various types of tractors within my budget, SOTA Tractors were the only ones who listened to what I was after and what my budget was and didn’t try to sell me something that wasn’t “fit for purpose”. SOTA Tractors also reassured me that replacement parts would be available should anything unforeseen occur.
Thanks again Tony for your friendly service and advice, I’m looking forward to many years of play time with ‘Bessy’ and dealings with SOTA Tractors in the future.”

Your initial advice was spot on for the size of tractor I needed and my Kubota does all the jobs on our 10 acres. Your service manager and onsite mechanic are great to deal with and could not be more helpful.
It has been a pleasure dealing with your company since I bought the tractor in 2018.
Please add my name to the list of your very satisfied customers and feel free to use this as a testimonial if you wish.”

“Hi Tony
Just want to say that my Apollo 254 is a great machine and, with the implement package, it represents fantastic value. I once had a basic old grey Fergi and it served its purpose so I was keen to get back to another small tractor that would allow me to get things done more efficiently with less carting a crow bar, shovel and wheelbarrow around.
Looked at a few over the last couple of years and thought that a reconditioned Kubota might be ideal. Glad that you showed me the Apollo – it’s ideal for what I need.
Great honest advice, friendly and prompt service – very much appreciated. Good doing business with you.”

“Hi Tony,
Just wanting to thank you very much for the whole experience of buying my first tractor / backhoe from Sota Tractors Brisbane. I am really happy with the whole combination and only being on small acreage, the 254 and RES 15 suits us perfectly just as you recommended.”
“The tractor starts and runs beautifully and has ample power to do all the jobs I will ever require of it even running at low RPMs. The backhoe appears to be really well built and works perfectly with little strain on the tractor at all as all the weight sits on its legs which is great. I am finding it a bit tricky to judge when the front edge of the FEL bucket is on the ground, so the bucket level indicator is a really helpful feature included on the Apollo FELs.
I really appreciated the time you took to run through all the features of the machines and how to hook and unhook the backhoe correctly. Looking forward to commencing many enjoyable projects with the new machines.
Thanks again for your help and advice.”

“…Thanks to all at Sota Tractors Geebung, for the professionalism and attention to detail provided throughout the sales process. Tony and the team were brilliant from the time that I set foot in the door, and the follow up calls to make sure that I was satisfied with the tractor, shows a deep commitment to customer service.
In addition to the great service, the Apollo 354 has exceeded expectations in terms of quality and value for money. Unfortunately, the dry weather of late has limited the chances to use the Del Morino flail mower, but the other implements, and in particular the front end loader have made previously difficult tasks a breeze….”

The tractor is an absolute saviour and has never missed a beat – and I get to move mountains and relive my childhood dreams every weekend.

“I would just like to thank the staff members and mechanics for their assistance over the phone with the small issue I had in regards to removing the extension shaft with yolk coming off pump on Del Morino backhoe attached to PTO shaft on tractor. Trying a couple of different things as suggested by Jim and mechanic this turned out to be a very easy fix, in the end, to remove what was stuck on real good. I have owned the Apollo 25 and several different attachments for approx 4 years, so after 4 years of purchasing all the equipment, their after sales assistance is still as good now as it was in the first year.
I have attached a couple of pictures of works I was doing earlier this year in February when it was very dry and hot and ground was very hard. I was trenching some 140 metres from the dam up to our home to run power to the dam. It took quite a few weekends to dig the whole distance due to the ground being so hard but the APOLLO tractor never missed a beat working in high 30 degree temperatures 10 hours a day, and the Del Morino Backhoe performed excellent.
Thanks again, very happy with all my equipment and thank you to all the Sota staff members for your excellent after sales customer service.”

“Jim delivered a Del Morino power harrow and a Del Morino Res 30 backhoe to my vineyard on Monday. Jim explained the workings of both implements to me and what I needed to check prior to using each implement. He then helped me hook up the power harrow to my tractor and I ready to try it out. I had ripped the vineyard rows a few days earlier and was amazed as to how well the power harrow managed to break up the uneven soil and leave me with a perfect surface ready for planting my cover crop. The performance of the harrow surpassed my expectations.
Many thanks to Steve and Jim at Sota Tractors.”

“Hi Steve,
After many years of maintaining a 50 acres property with limited machinery, i decided to purchase a Front end loader and really not knowing much about tractors i did some investigation of what is good value for money with after sales service as a high priority. I came across Sota Tractors and went to see Steve, straight away Steve asked all the right questions and advised me on the best front end loader to do the job. Steve pointed out all the features and how that work work into what i was looking for. I decided to go with 45 HP which would give me some grunt when moving logs and fallen trees around and mobility and flexibility getting around the property doing those smaller jobs.
Steve provided a full parts and labour warranty and that gave me peace of mind of not having any issues down the track. Steve took me through the workshop and detailed the process of what happens when a new tractor comes in and gets ready for delivery. After the tour of the Service department i knew Sota Tractors had the full end to end after sales service available and i felt comfortable. Steve offered a competitive total package price with all the implements I needed, delivery and on site training. The total purchasing experience was fantastic and nothing was a problem for Steve in helping me out.”
“The 45HP Front end loader was delivered and right on time by Jim, Jim spent a good 2 hrs with me making sure i understood all the safety requirements of operating the 45 HP, operationally how it all works and all the maintenance touch points and frequency. At the end of the training session i thought i was an expert. Great job Jim!!
Now we are in operational mode, the 45 HP is a ripper and operates above my expectations and has some grunt to go with it. Its a great unit and i should have bought it years ago.
Thank you Steve , Jim and Sota.”

I’ve just finished mowing over 110 acres of mixed country prior to the recent rains and couldn’t be happier, that 8’ 3” width really reduces the hours. The tractor is easy to service with all bungs and access points clearly marked, in conjunction with the maintenance schedules, illustrated operating and maintenance manuals it really is made simple. I do however appreciate you taking my late afternoon or early Saturday morning phone calls to confirm a couple of my questions or queries.
I tried putting off buying a tractor for as long as I could but now I don’t know how I did without it, the 4 Way FEL gets a workout almost every weekend and I no longer unload steel deliveries by hand, now either by slinging off the bucket lift point or with the fork attachments.

I would like to take this opportunity to relate some comments to you regarding the experience of purchasing my APOLLO 454 Tractor from your Company, Sota Tractors in Queensland. From my very first enquiry to you, you have been more than willing to help and provide me with guidance. I commend your customer focus and I am DELIGHTED with my Tractor.

I have no hesitation to recommend Sota Tractors, and you. Should anybody be looking for a good tractor, EXCELLENT support and outstanding Customer Service, they should not go anywhere else. Thank you sincerely for treating me as a friend, it has made our dealing and contact most enjoyable… I look forward to the first opportunity to be able to meet you face-to-face and hopefully get to take a good look around your facility in Geebung, perhaps meet some other staff in your team.”

It’s robust, manoeuvrable and great value for money.

Post hole digger has helped out me and neighbours, rotary hoe works well for the spud patch and veggie garden, slasher is very handy as is the carry-all. Whenever I have required advice or support Sota have been quick to respond, and flexible.

“Hi All,
I’d like to tell folks that I reckon Sota is a top company and I’m very pleased with the purchases and support we’ve experienced during the past year. If you’re thinking of buying a tractor, you can have confidence that whatever the folks at Sota tell you – they’ll stand behind. We purchased a used 40hp Aussie Spec Kubota and a number of accessories from Steve. It was our first tractor. The Sota Team couldn’t have been more helpful in the selection process as well as ensuring that everything went according to our agreement.
Since we’re in Tasmania I was concerned that being away from Melbourne I might have problems when equipment malfunctioned or I broke something. Those concerns have proved unfounded. I have broken stuff in learning to use the tractor and whenever things went wrong, Steve and his team were always there and did all possible to rectify the situation quickly. They authorized a local garage to work on the tractor and they absorbed those expenses that were attributable to warranty.
I am so impressed with the way Sota does business. I can wholeheartedly endorse this company. They are an honourable group of people and they stand behind their words, which is indeed rare in these times. Thanks Sota – job well done!”

“My name is Myles, I am a partner in a logging company here in Mullumbimby NSW. We log and export Camphor Laurel to Korea and to the domestic market. Our largest problem is working in the forest after or during rain. The ground becomes so soft it bogs down our Skid steer, our all terrain forklift and our front end articulated loader.
We thought to try a tractor as a last resort. I ended up purchasing a remanufactured Kubota tractor from Tony at SOTA Tractors, a little 28 hp job. Everyone said it wouldn’t pull our logs in the mud. Not only did the tractor not get bogged but it ended up pulling 3.5 meter 3 tonne logs all the way to the truck, which is about 10 mins drive… and just does not miss a beat.”
“The service we received from SOTA is terrific. We are now looking to buy another Kubota, the 45 hp model from them. So far so good, give them a call. Myles.”

“Hi Steve,
First 50 hours are nearly here for my APOLLO 354 and so far it has performed exceptionally well. It has been used for clearing silt from creek, pond and paddock drainage all over the property. It has torn out old fence lines and cleared gorse bushes with ease. Slashing, digging, you name it, the tractor has done it. I would highly recommend this machine to anyone.”

“Hi Steve,
I just got back from the farm the other day… after spending a fair while playing with the new tractor which is absolutely fantastic.
I’m just writing to say thank you to all involved in the process. Jim, who brought the tractor out and did the run-through, was brilliant. He explained all of the things well, answered questions, and even helped setting up some of the attachments. We had some friends staying with us at the farm at the time and they commented that they had never seen customer service like this before. I told them that is why I bought my second tractor from Sota.
In the past I’ve had help from others at Sota including Alan and Fez. So again thanks to all.”

“Hi Tony,
Just a quick email to say that my 35hp APOLLO arrived safe and sound at 2pm yesterday afternoon. Once it was unloaded and Nigel took me through the details of the tractor, I couldn’t help myself and went straight up the back paddock to test out the slasher. Although I have only put two hours on the tractor, I am very impressed, knocking over the tallest grass in the paddock with relative ease.
I would also like to mention that I was very impressed with Nigel, obviously a very professional person, his knowledge of the tractors is very good and willing to pass on as much information as possible before heading off. Could you please pass on my thanks?”

SOTA Tractors Reviews 2016
“Thanks for all your help with this. I wanted to pass on thanks also to the boys (please forgive me – was it Jim? my mind went blank for anyone not a tractor at that point) who delivered and installed the tractor and all the implements. Both were fantastic, extremely patient, friendly, and genuinely shared our excitement with us from start to end with the induction, safety, maintenance and the implements.”
“With the implements, they were both only too happy to set up the post hole digger run me through setting up a hole for storage as well as running through the removal of the slasher, hooking up the stick rake, the post hole digger, and back to the slasher. And ran me through the quick release of the bucket, where we swapped out to the pallet forks. This gave me the confidence to swap them back out during my “let’s learn through experience” afternoon – in particular as I’d asked the boys to leave all the implements on the driveway (post hole digger was already in storage) so I’d have to move them before the rest of the family got home!”
“While everything in the cabin was pretty overwhelming, both the boys ran through each lever and switch and pretty soon I had the hang of most things.”
“Having only previously had access to a pretty average lawnmower (push mower from our pre-rural suburban house) that I’d been using to wrestle nature with around the house site (approx 2acres of our 40), I was thrilled with the smoothness of the slasher and its ease of use – clearing previous overgrown areas that would have taken literally days in only a couple of hours. I had a fantastic afternoon.”
“Both the boys stressed no question was a silly question, and that help was only a phone call away. And that to me reconfirmed why SOTA was the only real choice for me – and I hope is a real game changer for the industry.”
“Thank you again for your help and advice, and please pass on our thanks to the boys also. I’m actually looking forward to the list of jobs I have to get done. Brilliant.”

“So after buying an old Fergie via a work mate I was amazed at what I could achieve, it really taught me the real value of having appropriate equipment whilst trying to maintain small acreage with very little time available to do so.
I had previously checked out SOTA along with many other vendors online. I was lucky enough to find some one local – an agricultural mechanic who had serviced Apollo’s including a ‘ 354 and another Chinese built tractor. He steered me toward the APOLLO…. He mentioned it had everything and exceptionally good value…”but we will see after its done some work!”
12 months on, dozens of citrus trees pulled, lifted and moved, numerous FEL jobs, mower duties, with the supplied flail mower (bloody great) and so much more. And so economical In short just do it!
I won’t repeat what other customers have said regarding after sales and the SOTA team other than to say they have been excellent. You won’t look back and you will be astounded at the strength and versatility of this machine, It’s simple, reliable and extremely capable, better than expected. You also have the equivalent or better than 100 odd men at your disposal. I have had no issues thus far. Oh, and they all have a sense of humor at SOTA, …even Steve!”

“From the start of my inquiry with Sota I found Mark to be friendly, enthusiastic and really helpful with advice on what to buy and direction on the implements I should need. The package deal was perfect for my budget and the combo of tractor and tools has surpassed expectations on value for money.
So far my 254 has performed very nicely; some initial teething problems were immediately rectified, without hassle. Delivery too was very satisfactory; Ryan took the time to explain everything and also had some good advice having seen my place. I heartily recommend the Sota team and am really grateful for great customer experience. I am set with a great little machine. Thanks Sota!”

“The SOTA team at Penrith has been fantastic. They have gone out of their way to ensure that I can obtain the filters that are needed to be changed during servicing, from a local source, as I live too far away from their service centre.
My tractor, an APOLLO 354 has been fantastic. A real workhorse. If you need technical advice, the service department are willing to talk you through the process over the phone. They treat all of your questions with respect and thus there is no such thing as a dumb question. It’s great to know that SOTA is just a phone call away and that they will go that extra step to help you.”

SOTA Tractors Reviews 2015
“Darren delivered our APOLLO 354 on a sunny Saturday morning. It was all about safety – right from the start – and we are very grateful for that! Darren ensured that our introduction to the tractor’s controls was considered and carefully sequenced. Each step was logical. Our 354 has lots of controls – sometimes it seemed overwhelming when compared with an old Fergy. Why does the APOLLO 354 have TWO H-L ranges? What is the creeper range lever on the dashboard? However, my early worries “I’ll never learn all this..” were soon dissipated. Darren’s confidence in our abilities, combined with clearly explained practical demonstrations soon had us in the driving seat.
Before I knew it Darren was demonstrating just how valuable a creeper range is. He was moving slowly forwards down a steep hill on our paddock in low range second gear with four wheel drive engaged. The lovely red Del Morino flail mower comfortably mulched our (previously untamed) grass into a perfect carpet as he went.
My turn came. Uphill in reverse, the creeper gears give an inexperienced operator so much thinking time: a powerful aid to confidence building and operator safety. I could hardly believe the power coming out of this 35hp tractor. Not a pause, no shuddering, just powering on, relentless. Slow, steady and up.
Since that first day we have done over 20 hours within two weeks: moving 10cm of topsoil from truck delivery, mowing our property and half the neighbour’s property, moving some fallen gum tree trunks and branches, pushing over a damp file pile, pulling out star pickets and lifting wooden beams with equal ease. No feelings of “I’m going to tip this over” and I’m really glad we invested in the industrial tyres. Great fat rear tyres, lots of water ballast in those and lots of traction on hills, but without damaging our lawns. It’s maintenance time now. “

I forget the name of the gent that delivered the tractor today, but I just wanted to pass on my thanks to both you and he for your valuable assistance in the last 2 weeks, and the fantastic handover I received today. He spent the time needed to explain my new toy to me in detail – and he clearly did a great job as I feel pretty confident around the machine and all those levers already! I have only had a small drive about today but I am very pleased so far. Again, thank you.”

“Hi Paul,
I received my new tractor this morning and I just wanted to say a few things about it and SOTA in general.
The whole process from enquiry to delivery has been outstanding. From day 1 when I sent a simple enquiry, it was promptly followed up with emails and phone calls. Your information and suggestions at this time were very helpful which resulted in my purchasing the correct machine for my needs.
At the time of purchase, even though you were rushing off to the field days, you still provided great service and didn’t rush it through. After handing it over to Steve to complete the transaction, he was fast, professional, and made the purchasing process very easy for me, even liaising with my finance company.
Then when Steve showed up with the delivery I was even more impressed. Great communication pre-delivery, excellent product knowledge, and a very thorough run down on the machine. Some great tips and tricks too.
The machine itself was better than I expected. It certainly is not a ‘cheap’ Chinese tractor, it feels very solid and sturdy. It certainly has the required ‘bells and whistles’… I put it to work today and it performed perfectly.
The AGMAX implements are also of a very good quality, more than happy with them. I must say this APOLLO tractor has been one very easy and satisfying purchase.”

Thanks to all your staff that helped in making my experience a great one, with great customer service. My thanks goes to yourself, and all those involved, right down to the delivery and advice, from the driver/delivery man. His advice and thoughts were greatly appreciated.
Your business is one that cares about customer service and delivers it. Something that is missing with a lot of businesses.

GARY & MICHELLE – HEAVENLY HILLS FARM, YINNAR, VIC
“My partner and I would very much like to thank one of your team members, Tony, for his wonderful support before, during and after our APOLLO tractor purchase. We recently moved to the country and were completely unsure of what machine to purchase and with whom. After a little research we decided to start local with SOTA Tractors at Geebung in Queensland, where we met Tony and the team. Tony gave us a lot of his time, particularly as we had no idea of our requirements or what we needed as we had no farming experience. His professionalism, salesmanship and thankfully, good humour were outstanding and very reassuring and these traits were the main reason why we felt comfortable in purchasing our tractor from SOTA.
We have since been on the receiving end of an exceptional level of after sales service which we cannot thank him enough for. Thank you SOTA Tractors for giving us someone who loves a laugh, is ready with a coffee when we show for servicing parts and provides encouragement and support when we ring in for over-the-phone instructions on how to conduct services, or work, on our tractor. We have recommended Tony and the team to many of the people we encounter on our local area.”

JACQUI & TONY – DEVIOT, TAS
“Paul’s communications are exceptional to say the least. (Paul, Sales Manager, Victoria) It was his care and feedback to me that was a huge deciding factor in us choosing your company. Whereas a salesperson from another company left me feeling that my prospective purchase was of little significance in his large number of more important enquiries, with Paul I have always felt valued and respected. No question was considered foolish or insignificant and a lot of very good and valued advice was offered above and beyond what was expected…it’s this level of service that makes us trust that we will have the same care in after sales service. It’s good to know that you keep an eye on things, which means you’ll know what a valuable member of staff you have in Paul.”

I’m really pleased with my APOLLO purchase and the great service from SOTA Tractors.”

KEN – BUNDALAGUAH, VIC
“I visited SOTA at their showroom and was impressed with the presentation of their machines. The sales team were helpful, the package quoted was what I paid. They took the time to understand what I wanted and what jobs I had to do. I could see that it wasn’t just a case of importing tractors and flogging them off.”
STEVEN – WIMMERA, VIC

JOHN – NUHAKA, NZ
“SOTA offers good value and peace of mind. They have a recognised brand that is remanufactured and comes with a warranty. The more I use the tractor, the more I am amazed at the ability of a compact tractor. It has done quite a number of hours’ work now and we haven’t had a hint of trouble.”
JOHN – PYRENNES SHIRE, VIC
“…What I didn’t expect, and what I think is over and above what I paid for, is the follow-up service from your team…all of the above is a long winded way of saying I have no hesitation in recommending your product, and more importantly, your company to my friends. As a matter of fact, I have already done so.”
