Questions from Australia buyers
Straight answers on delivery, licences, towing, finance and choosing a machine for Australia.
Where do the specifications come from?
From the manufacturer's specification sheets and the product pages on the Rippa Australia store, with corrections applied where the two differ. Always confirm the current specification with Rippa Australia before purchase, as production batches vary.
Are prices the same in every state?
The machine price is national; freight is added per destination. Every quote from Rippa Australia is one figure including freight to your address.
Which Rippa excavator is the best seller?
The R15 and R18 PRO account for most suburban and lifestyle-block sales; the R22 PRO is the most common acreage and trade machine.
Are all Rippa excavators Kubota-powered?
All R-series excavators from the R06 to the R57 PRO run Kubota diesels. The R82 PRO is offered with Yanmar or Changchai engines. The RS03 skid steer runs a Briggs & Stratton petrol engine; the other skid steers are Kubota.
Do attachments fit across models?
No. Attachments are built per model group: R06; R10/R13/R15; R18; R22; R32 for excavators, and RS03/RS04; RS06/RS07; RS10/RS20 for skid steers. The attachment finder lists what fits each.
Can I inspect a machine?
Yes, at Rippa Australia's warehouse at Currumbin Waters on the Gold Coast, or at Rippa Perth in Bellevue WA, by appointment.
Is finance available?
Yes, through Rippa Australia's finance partners for business, rural and private buyers across Australia.
