Case CX80C Mini Excavator - 3,456 Hours - Enclosed Cabin - Hydraulic Thumb and Bucket
Overview
This Case CX80C is a compact, versatile mini excavator purpose-built for precision earthmoving, utility work, and confined-space applications. The CX80C class represents the sweet spot in the mini excavator market, delivering genuine digging power with exceptional manoeuvrability. With 56 kilowatts of turbocharged diesel output and a 3,456-hour service history, this machine is well-suited to landscaping contractors, utility operators, and small-to-medium construction firms seeking reliable, fuel-efficient performance on residential and commercial sites.
This particular example presents in honest working condition. The enclosed cabin with full glazing and operational air conditioning provides operator comfort during extended shifts. The undercarriage shows moderate wear consistent with 3,456 hours of active service, with rubber track pads retaining approximately 50-60% of remaining life. The boom and arm structure remain straight and true, with normal operational wear visible on the hydraulic cylinders and hose routing. The bucket cutting edge and hydraulic thumb show surface oxidation and wear marks typical of productive use, indicating this machine has been actively earning its keep rather than sitting idle.
In today's market, compact excavators in the 8-tonne class with enclosed cabs and genuine service hours command strong interest from contractors seeking proven, mid-life machines. Comparable CX80C units with similar hours and cabin specification have recently sold in the AUD 45,000-55,000 range depending on attachment configuration and regional demand. This example, equipped with both GP bucket and hydraulic thumb, represents solid value for buyers seeking immediate productivity without the premium of low-hour stock.
Condition
Exterior paint shows typical weathering and minor scuffing consistent with site work, with no structural damage or major dents visible. The enclosed cabin is intact with all glazing present and operational, seat upholstery shows normal wear, and controls respond smoothly. The turbo diesel engine fires reliably and runs without visible smoke or unusual noise. Hydraulic system operates smoothly across all functions with no active leaks observed, though minor seepage around cylinder rod seals is normal for machines at this hour level. Track tension is appropriate and track pads, whilst showing wear, remain serviceable. The quick coupler operates positively and locks securely. All safety decals and warning signage remain legible.
