Strange question I know.

Id like a buy a Wheel Barrow for a gardeners birthday.

Are there recognised makes as being the Ferrari of the Wheel Barrow world?


If your friend is into old tools, or likes classy handmade items, and you
have deep pockets, how about a wooden one?

A friends came from...

http://netgardeners.co.uk/adverts/wdcraft.html Heritage Woodcraft of
Romsey (ignore the planters they do make proper ones, or did)


or http://wooden-wheels.mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/ will make you one.

Nowhere near as practical as a steel builders wheelbarrow (or as light) if
you want one to use but sure looks better and with some looking after would
become an heirloom.
Actually, just like most Ferraris would you want to use it or keep it in the
garage? More a piece of engineering art.
