what year WD? there were some improvements (not alot) over the time they were built.
you can probably find a decent WD45 for the same $. a tad more power and a bit newer. LOTS of parts available for the WD's new and used.
the WDs are lighter for sure but have a peppy engine and are simple to work on. the WD doesn't have what I call a true live PTO. you cannot just hit a lever and engage the PTO. you have to push in the foot clutch and engage the PTO and then let the clutch out. the hand clutch on the WD lets you operate like a live PTO so keep that in mind. the WD snap coupler hitch set up is fairly easy to convert to standard 3pt hitch but could make getting on/off a bit more challenging.
I've spent alot of time in the seat of the WD45 and some on a WD. I cannot say I know much about the MiniMo's other than they are heavier built.
for small acres and the price the WD will probably do what you want. If it were myself I would probably look for a good small newer Case 430/530 or smaller Ford 3000/4000 or Oliver 55/550 but those will be a bit more $.

He farms around a hundred and fifty acres of arable land, in a village called Southam, located just outside Leamington Spa in Warwickshire. The soil is a rich dark brown and is well looked after. unlike some areas in the midlands it is also fairly flat, broken only by hedgerows and the occasional valley and brook. A copse of wildbreaking silver birch and oak trees surround the top si
